I once decided to give away clothes for a toddler. A woman contacted me, explaining that she was in a difficult situation and her daughter had no clothes. She asked if I could mail the items to her. My first instinct was to hesitate, but then I thought, “What if this is her only hope?”
I sent the clothes, paying for the postage myself. It felt like a small gesture, and I didn’t expect anything in return. A year later, I received a package filled with homemade treats—nuts, dried fish, marmalade, and more. It was from the same woman. She shared that her family’s circumstances had improved, and she wanted to thank everyone who had helped them during their tough times. That package was a beautiful reminder that even the smallest acts of kindness can create meaningful connections and lasting joy.
