Thread: Good deed of the day

I was thinking we need a thread like this to share our experiences that were positive and made us feel good. You know when you go out of your way to do good even when you don't have to. There has been a lot of negativity going around lately so we need some serious positivity.

Today I was in welding class at the college I am attending. Last block of schooling!! Very excited to get it over with. Off topic so back we go. While I was in welding class one of the international students from India was having trouble TIG welding. He came up to me and asked me for help. I could have easily told him to go ask the instructor because I was busy too. I ended up spending the better part of an hour (on and off) teaching him and he was very grateful for it. It felt good to help someone in need and I also made a friend.

It may not have been a huge thing, but knowing how grateful he was really made me feel like I did the right thing. Paying it forward.

So what was your good deed today?

Great thread idea, I hope to post to it regularly.

At Sally's Beauty Supply last week there were two bottles of Pinaud left; I only bought one and left one for someone else.


...Okay, I will try tomorrow to do a real nice deed.

Too funny, you are a true humanitarian.

This is an excellent idea!

I didnt run anyone off the road with my big truck. Ok, ill try harder next time. I mean the helping of others not running people off the road.
Great thread. Hope it goes on for a long time.

I found a smart phone on a seat in a high traffic hallway this morning. I turned it in to the nearest lost and found.

OK, if that qualifies, I did the same last week with one I found on the sidewalk. I carried it around till the owner called and we arranged for a place for me to return it.

didn't do a deed today but have done something similar with a wad of money i found. i know i'm trustworthy but how about the people at the lost and found? i left my name and number and told them what i found and if someone came looking for it to have them give me a call. got a call a couple hours later and the guy came a picked it up.
My wife lost her purse in a parking lot and got a call from the person who found it. Grateful for honest people.

Just ordered my dad a Mekur 34c as well as some other shaving goodies. That counts as a good deed right?
