in my book john jumps in the ocean to get savannah's purse when he barely knew her just b/c he felt it was the right thing to do. have you ever done anything nice for someone who you do not know when it is not expected?
Yes, I always hold doors for strangers when I go to the store or something. I know they appreciate it even when they are strong enough to open those heavy doors. But I just feel like its the right thing to do.
I've never really done something as extreme as jump in an ocean to go get a stranger's purse. Sometimes I think it's the little things that you can do that make the most difference. I know that when someone will hold the door open for me even when it's cold that I feel like that was very curtious. Or when you smile at someone who looks like they're having a bad day I think that helps them. Even though it seems a little weird and creeper-ish. Sometimes it's the smallest things that are the most appreciated.
I'm sure everyone has at some point. I've never been the person to jump in front of a moving bus to save a stranger, but I have given money to a homeless person and picked up something a stranger had dropped and retunred it to them. I know I didn't have to do those things, but what comes around goes around, and I would hope someone will return the favor to me someday. =D
I've never done anything that drastic but I have helped stranger in little ways. There is always the old cute little lady at the grocery store that either cant reach the milk or its to heavy for her to pick up, and when people drop money or something like that I always pick it up and give it to them. During tourist season I always make a point of giving someone a break while driving, just because its the nice thing to do and I know that I hate being that person stuck at a stop sign and no one will let them out.
