Random Act of Love–One Cup At A Time

Today do something kind for someone else.  Don't think about it just do it.  The world appears to be in trouble, and when people are in trouble they are anxious and frightened.  They scope down their world to an immediate few or even to themselves alone.

Others live in the world too, and when push comes to push, we need each other.

In 2005, I went to WorldCon, the World Science Fiction Convention in Glasgow, Scotland.  This was weeks after the explosions in London in the underground train stations and on a bus.   I remember seeing the scenes on television.  Smoke pouring out of one of the stations.  People streaming out. Some confused.  Some hurt.  A woman from one of the houses brought a little table out to the sidewalk and she started giving out cups of tea.  She walked up to people handing them tea.

What a wonderfully unique soul to see people in trouble and to know that even her gentle act of a cup of tea was a help.

So I ask you.  Today, please, do one act of kindness and in that single act give love to the world.
