I'm not quite sure why, but whenever I see refuse on sidewalks, sides of roads, malls.....wherever....I have to pick it up and find a trash container to dispose of it in.

I hate litter! :MARIS61:

What are some of the good/kinder things you do to be helpful and/or make this world a better place in which to live....just because?
 
Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
 
I often wipe down the counters after washing my hands in public restrooms. I don't know why, but for some reason it just bothers me when water is splashed all over the counter.

I do it because I don't like the looks of trash strewn on the streets, etc.. I'm also curious as to what others do. There's nothing quite like encouraging each other to become better stewards of the planet.

I heard that. Oh, and the office lunchroom. Clean counters are important.

Hey! That's Cool! I wish someone had a mop the floor thing.
 
Being a brute, I frequently check and change the water jugs at work even though I almost never use them. All sorts of stuff like that, changing CO2 tanks, opening containers, I make sure lids are loose enough for anyone to use the chemicals at work.

I always stop to give directions and offer to take pictures for people whenever a picture is being taken but it looks like the picture taker is being left out.

I talk to the homeless, and listen.

Dude, these are all really great things! We may have our differences, but looking out after others' needs appears to be something you strive for. Kudos!

Heh, made me remember that I like to collect free chalupa coupons (many just give them away to others following the games), stick them in my glovebox, then hand them out to the folks with the signs at stoplights. Not that they'll ever use them, mind you! :lol:

Most people are good. That includes Christians, Atheists, Muslims, Pagans and on and on, even Sly.

I remember once being at a gathering with Sly. While we were conversing, one of his former bosses came up to us and blurted out, "That Sly character, he's good for nothing!!"

I responded, "Not so fast, my friend. He can always be used as a bad example."

Well played.

Damn, Sly, almost correct..

I think the intent was that we were not to do things just for show, rather from the heart

could it be that we can share in relative anomynity ideas that ar easy to do for others?

I gave up my seat on the bus for an old person once.
 
I am the Word guru at work, people come knocking on my door when they get stuck with the arcane details of Microsoft Word formatting.

I bring cookies to work every Monday, except when it's over 90degrees on Sunday.

I am a volunteer safety monitor at Pride Parade every year.

I give my neighbors some of the produce from my garden.

I took in 3 feral cats.

Gosh, I'm so fucking virtuous I can't stand myself.
 
I donate blood at the Red Cross on a regular basis.

I used to do that a while back, when there was a red cross bus that would come to my work on a regular basis. I should. Give me some details, where, how long it takes, stuff like that.

I love cookies, but you should bring in some fruit as well for those who may be tempted by sweets who have weight problems! =]

I do, especially when I have overload - had overload of lemons until it got really hot and I started making lemonade by the gallon, and an absolute biblical plague of plums! Apples & figs pending.
 
I have one from my entire neighborhood. We have an older homeless guy that wanders the neighborhood. He's not a drug addict or an alcoholic. He doesn't bother anyone but he's clearly not comfortable with other people and really doesn't want to be approached. He's mentally ill but harmless and just minds his own business. His name is Joe and he loves his coffee so people from the neighborhood just go in to the corner Plaid Pantry and put money on a tab for him.
