What Did You Do For Someone Else Today?

I went with my father in law to the art museum. It was for him and a bit for myself. I know it makes him happy that I am willing to go with him. I end up enjoying it too, so it is all good.
 
I took my son to the store. That way my husband didn't have to do it after he got home from work. Which he would have with little complaint.
 
I emptied the dishwasher for my husband. I guess he was going to do it, but hoped I would since he now has my cold. I really don't consider this a big feat. I do it whenever it finishes during the day. Silly man. But he thinks I do it for him, so I am posting it on here.
 
I'm letting my husband nap during the day. Trying to keep things quiet for him, because he is a light sleeper. It's been almost three hours, but he has caught my cold, and he needs the rest.
 
For a random act of kindness, I helped up a small child that got stuck in a wave, I rescued a boogie board that a little girl had lost hold of and I complimented people on their children and dogs and exchanged some nice comments and pleasantries and had a few nice moments when I did some small helpful things for other people. Laughing with people at the antics of small children.

I did not know that doing small consistent acts of random kindness could enrich my own life so much and bring those feelings of community, connection and contentment.
