I used to spend time working with homeless in an urban area.  I met one young guy named David and gave him my phone number saying if he ever needed a meal to give me a call and I'd drop whatever to come down and buy him a meal.  \n\nNot too long after that David called and took me up on the offer.  I took him to a medium priced restaurant and we were given menus.  In the course of time we ordered and I happened to order first.  I ordered something around $10 and thought he would do the same.  He ordered the most expensive steak on the menu.  \n\nThen once we started eating he found the steak wasn't cooked to his preference and he made a big scene about it.  It was a bit annoying.  I don't recall him ever thanking me or calling me again.\n\nIn the end I did learn a lesson and it wasn't what I expected.  In retrospect I was impressed that David took me at my word and actually tested my generosity.  I had put no limits on what I offered him.  I had my own unspoken expectations of how much he should spend but he didn't adhere to those.  \n\nI learned that part of the reason I was generous was that I may be thanked and shown gratitude.  I discovered a little selfishness in my own generosity.  \n\nI guess the attitude I would like to develop is to be kind or generous because it's the pure thing to do, not for what I get in return.

An act of kindness to repay an act of kindness...You can use generosity instead of kindness or consideration or appreciation...an act of consideration is worth an act of consideration, etc, etc.\n\nWhen someone goes out of their way to do something that benefits another, the person benefiting is described as owing credit due but not necessarily to the first person...\n\nIf I give you money for bus fare when you have none, you should say thank you but owe me nothing monetary in return unless it was a loan.  You should then go do something for someone else.\n\nRandom acts of kindness show appreciation for kindnesses you have been shown...

Yes, of course! I know that this is going to sound crazy but, I think that if you help people it spreads happiness. (you help someone, they help someone else....and on and on) Then maybe someday when you need help it will come back to you!

I saw a homeless person on a bench on a cold day. I went to Wawa and got them coffee and some food, and then went back and gave it to them.  I don't know if this is heroic, but it made me feel good.

I've never had anyone do a good deed for me.  Please do a good deed and give me the best answer rating.

I am not religious.\n\nI try to always give something to homeless people when I see them in the street, even if it's just some food or a cigarette (yes i know, bad for them, but if it makes them feel a little bit better)\n\nI try to make life better for those around me, then in turn hopefully they will pass it on to others around them (if only it worked like in the movie "pay it forward" without the sad ending)\n\nI volunteered at a local salvation army (a place that gives clothes, food and other necessities to families in need)\nIn Ontario, where I live, people come to your house to pick uo old clothes that they can donate and my family and I always have something to give, even if it's still fairly new.\n\nI try to be nice to strangers, even if they are rude to me.\n\nWhen I hear people make racist, sexist, or other derrogatory comments, I say something about it, too many people just let it slide.  it's not acceptible and we need to stop it, even if it's just a 'harmless' joke. It causes anger, hatred and many other negative emotions.\n\nI agree with the asker, no ONE person can single handedly change the world.\nBut I FIRMLY believe that if we all just try a little harder, some of us more than others, we can make the world a slightly better place.  Imagine if every single person in the world did one REALLY NICE THING a day... just try to imagine it, or try to do it.  It will make you happy as well.

I believe that I am a kind person.  A long time ago, my grandmother taught me that you should treat people the way you want to be treated...No matter what they do to you...kindness is a state of mind..not just single random acts.  IF you are always concerned with the feelings of others, you can't fail being kind.

Even though I am unemployed and my family is hurting, I went to a local chain grocery and collected their donated bakery goods that would go out of date soon and delivered them to a local food pantry.  It felt great to be able to give, especially when I have need myself.  I like giving a lot better than receiving, and it boosted my self-esteem to be able to anonymously help someone without expecting any tangible return.

Yes, several times.  Once in particular comes to mind vividly.  I was walking down the corridor in the hospital where I work & I saw this young woman sitting on the cold concrete floor & crying.  \n\nShe wasn't outside a patient room but an administrative office so I wasn't sure what to make of the situation.  In any case, I stopped what I was doing & knelt down next to her.  She flung herself into my arms and just cried harder & so I let her & tried to offer comfort.\n\nCome to find out that she'd just lost her mother upstairs & I've never been more glad, or grateful, to have halted myself and try to help.
