I have a confession. I really enjoy random acts of kindness (RAOK). These acts can be thrilling and even addictive. My soul smiles knowing that I might cause a complete stranger to have an unexpected happy moment.
There are a lot of
savvy shoppers out there on Pinterest so I decided to see if anyone had pinned
an item I was looking to gift a friend. On my
Pinterest treasure hunt I came across this gorgeous accessory on someone's "wish
list" board. The comment with this
pin was so sweet. The pinner spoke of
her grandmother having a similar item
that she always admired. Intrigued, I
clicked the image and it took me to an Etsy shop. Hmm...fancy that, the item was still available. It didn't quite fit what I was looking to gift my friend, but that didn't mean I couldn't gift it to this admirer. So I bounced the idea around in my head for a bit and then decided I would contact the seller. She schemed with me and made it happen. Next thing you
know…..BOOM! The item was shipped off to
the admirer. RAOK complete.
I know that some people out there choose not to share their RAOK and that is OK. I personally like hearing about them and sharing them in hopes that the happiness will spread like wild fire. I'm always open to fun and fresh new ideas. Have any of you been on the receiving end of a RAOK? Which random acts of kindness are your favorite?
