This is my attempt to create the feel good thread of the year © . In here you can share stories of completely random acts of kindness by strangers who made your day/week/whatever even though they didn't have any reason to do so.My story: At Rock Werchter, a festival, I accidentally lost my wallet while heading home about an hour after the final act (on day 2 out of the 4). When I was back in my tent on the camping I noticed I lost my wallet - I definitely had it when I left the festival terrain, so I must have lost it while I went back to the camping. It was about a 10-minute walk so plenty of space to lose it. Crap. My wallet, with my ID, bank card, driver's license ,about 60 bucks and a bunch of food/drink tickets in it. ****.The following morning I suddenly received a text message that said "get your wallet at the entrance of camping A2" (there are about 9 campings I think, pretty big festival). OK, awesome. I go there and it's just a random festivalgoer. He told me he'd used the information in my ID to look up my home address with his phone, called my parents for my cellphone number, so he could send me the text. He gave me back the wallet and everything was still in there. Holy ****.I told him I could never repay this incredible kindness, but I still wanted to give him free beers or 20 bucks or something, but he absolutely refused anything I'd give him, telling me "it's the normal thing to do".What a great guy.Now it's your turn, DG. Share your stories of random kindness and make everyone feel a little happier.
