I was just grocery shopping and mysteriously had an extra 90$ on my foodcard. So I exclaimed to the cashier, “wow i love surprise extra money”. The person in line behind me said, “i wish i got surprise money”. So I took 5$ and tossed it in her bag, she said “No Wait Dont!” but I had already spun around and was on my way out of the store.
So what was that? Good or bad?
A good deed because it was kindness and generousity? Did her stating she didnt want it make it immoral and thus i should have stayed so she could give it back? Did it all happen as it was supposed to so that she would display herself as nonneedy, I could do the kindness, and, by leaving before anything could change, the state of reality was frozen as is for us beings within?
Please tell me whether I’m good or evil; thank you! :)
While hiking with my boyfriend and dog I was waiting outside a supermarket one day while he was shopping. A woman and her daughter came to give us some dogtreats and a bag of sweet buns because they thought I was homeless. I couldn’t do anything but gracefully accept. We did enjoy the sweet buns and a few days later we spotted a woman with her daughter begging at the train station and were able to pass on the kindness. We are also always on the lookout for beggars with dogs to share out some treats. All in all it caused more goodness (and only slight embarresment) in our lives.
