Random Acts of Kindness

'I don't need your money, I need your kidney."

A 78 year-old South Carolina man walked 15 miles in 97 degree heat with torn cartilage in his knee, all for a worthy cause. He became a walking billboard for his wife who was in dire need of a kidney transplant. As he walked through his home town carrying a sign that read: Need Kidney 4 Wife, he received many offers of money which he turned down, he needed someone to donate an organ instead. Funny how people automaticly think that money can solve everything.

With some help from the media, someone has stepped forward to donate a kidney to his wife of 58 years.

Imagine how far we could go when we persevere with love as the ultimate reason.

Another random act of kindness that happened just recently was when a family with a special needs child had their restaurant bill paid for by a stranger. Along with the paid bill came a note reading: God only gives special children to special people.

It is so nice to see that love still exists within a world of turmoil.
