RAK Week Three

Like my blog buddy, Shug, over at My Steps of Faith, I find it hard to share the kind things I might do for others, but do so simply to inspire others.


My RAK this week didn't take much effort. I  shared some soup with the widow who lives across the street from me. I had some friends over for lunch, made a big pot of soup, and after everyone left, while cleaning up, I thought to share a bowl before putting the remainder into the refrigerator.  She was surprised to find me behind her door, and had a huge smile when I told her I brought her some soup that I thought she might enjoy for dinner.

Thank you Betsy for encouraging all of us to be a bit kinder each day. Check out Betsy blog here.

    That's a great idea...such a simple gesture but I'm sure it made her day! I need to do that to my elderly neighbor across the street....I know she'd love it, too!

    It doesn't take much really to brighten someone's day, does it. Good on you.

      You know full well what a knock on the door can mean to someone all alone! Thanks, Eddie.

    I'm agreeing with everyone else that your simple gesture was very thoughtful.

      I could not agree more, Tanna. They use to say a way to a man's heart was through his stomach, but I think it holds true for everyone.
