Kathy Phillips+FollowThe First Christmas Without My Wife. Then the Neighbor Knocked.My wife used to handle all the decorations. This year, the house was silent and dark; I just wanted to sleep through it. Suddenly, a knock. The young couple next door stood there with hot dumplings and homemade gingerbread men. "Grandpa, Merry Christmas, we made too much." I knew it was a lie; they just didn't want me to be alone. Those dumplings were the warmest meal I've ever had. #Loneliness #Neighbors #Kindness #HolidaySpirit80Share
otaylor+FollowChristmas Kindness Comes Full CircleYou won’t believe this real-life holiday twist: A guy helps a stranger on the side of the road before Christmas, gives her his last $40, and three years later, she shows up as his sick mom’s nurse’s aide! The connection stuns everyone, and after his mom passes (on the aide’s birthday!), the family raises $35K to help her become a nurse. Proof that small acts of kindness can boomerang back in the wildest ways. #Religion #Godwinks #HolidaySpirit70Share
