Daily writing prompt
Write about a random act of kindness you’ve done for someone.

I’m not comfortable talking about things like that. I was always taught that you shouldn’t talk about kind things you’ve done for other people, because it makes you look like you’re bragging, and maybe makes them look like a beggar. 🤷‍♀️

Let’s face it, some of these daily prompts are better than others. The bots that write them don’t always make good choices with their lives. Do they have lives? Are they really intelligent when all they do is scan the internet for clues?

I’m digressing already, or stalling… Something like that.

I rather talk about kind things that have come my way. That time I got my VW Beetle stuck in a snowdrift and someone loaned me their dog to keep me warm. 🙂 Doors opened for me, heavy things lifted. Words of encouragement when I’m feeling down. Out shopping and another customer warns me that that brand I’m about to choose sucks. LOL. Or that I can get it cheaper down the street.

There are a dozen more of these. Kindness is contagious, just like rudeness, so it’s always better to be kind to people so that you don’t infect anyone with a bad mood. 💞

  1. Yeah, I don’t usually talk about acts of kindness either. I just figure we all try to be kind if we have a chance to. Usually I like to just chat with my coworkers when I’m in the office, not about work but to just make sure they’re doing alright.

  3. You too! I try to be good when I can. I’m basically a goofball that tries to entertain everyone with funny faces, etc.

  5. It’s the middle child syndrome probably lol. I’m the Loki in the family and that translates into real life too.

  7. Yeah… I’ve been told that talking about your own acts of kindness can come across as “bragging” as well. Now I’m wondering to what degree? Hmmm… nope, nope… going down a rabbit hole. HAHA!

    I do agree, kindness can be very contagious… unless met with an opponent hellbent on rudeness. In this instance just DNE – Do Not Engage!
