I love that movie and I was watching it today.
After watching it, still having the "holiday blues" I put my coat, gloves and hat on and went out to find someone to help. I ran into another person in a wheelchair that had gotten her front tire wedged in the Light Rail track  Light Rail is our above ground subway track.
Anyway, I helped her get her front tire unstuck. Right after getting her tire unstuck we heard the whistle of the train coming  .
Scares the he** out of me to think what might have happened if I hadn't left my Apt. today. The sad part in my story is that when I saw this lady she was waving her arms wildly trying to get somebody's attention and nobody would stop and their were dozens of people just passing this lady by. Society today scares me. Have we become that calious of a society? Anyway, I have a favor to ask. If you haven't already done something nice for someone today, please do it and post it here. If you have already done something nice for someone, tell us I would love to hear it. Oh, and by the way, I might be crying right now, but it's happy tears. I'm glad I was there to help someone - and my "holiday blues" are over

Nice job. I would have stopped to help too. Some people are in such a rush nowadays, they just ignore people in need. It's really sad.
I'm taking a girl out for her birthday tonight. And yes, I actually met her on this site. |

Good for you Red! I have never seen the movies but I try to "pass it forward" I never take money when I stop to help people on the road, I always tell them I have been helped when I needed it, so you keep that & help someone else. Last year I helped 2 young ladies that were stranded half way between home & the family they were visiting. I treated them to dinner & they called for a tow from the restaurant, Then I waited with them for the tow truck & took them back into town to the WalMart where they could wait for their dad in safty & relative comfort. They seemed amazed that a stranger would do this, so I told them the about the 2 times someone did it for me, & told them that one day when they found themselves with the time & extra money to remember & pass the favor forward. |

I was out today walking my dog, "Boogie"..
thats her...heehee. Well we saw this little dog running around all wild, and it looked like it had broken off its rope... there was a piece still hanging from its collar. And "Boogie", says to me.."Mom, we gotta help dude find his way home...he looks hella lost and confused". So we did! We knocked on every door, one by one, till we found his owners... and needless to say...we all felt really happy afterwards. "Boogie" says shes really glad we helped the puppy... and ya know..so am I! |

 that movie..
me and some friends did that last christmas... a friend got me a VERY hard to find WII about 2 weeks before christmas one day..and just charged me what she paid for it and told me to pay it forward. i got another friend a small christmas tree to set up in his house because he had been to busy and almost forgot about putting up a tree.. pay it forward...is a good way to live life. every day..a random act of kindness |
