When And What Was It, That Made Your Day?

Either you did for Someone else or Someone did for You..

The most memorable incident occurred in 2005 and involved my first girlfriend, who broke my heart so badly that I did not get over it.
I was the editor of a regional newspaper.
The Australian version of a tornado had gone through a small town and caused a lot of damage.
I went to the scene with two of my reporters.
As I drove through the devastation, I saw a woman and three young adults standing looking at a pile of wreckage used to be a house.
I thought that it would make a good pix and put a human face on the disaster.
I stopped, then walked across about 200 metres of open ground to the former house.
Turned out, the woman was girlfriend #1, who ran off with a loser bad boy after she had pretended for a year to be my girlfriend. She had used me as a smoke screen, to conceal from her parents that she was maintaining a secret relationship with the bad boy.
The three young adults were her children, all of whom were self-evidently sired by different men.
She was unemployed, a single mother on welfare and homeless, thanks to the storm. The cherry on top was that the house was uninsured. She could not afford the insurance premium.
As I stood there and listened to her tale of woe, the level of schadenfreude was orgasmic.
I had to use my lifetime of devotion to karate to maintain an expressionless face and voice.
For the next week, she telephoned my office every day to beg me to forgive her and ‘try again’. 🤣
Of course, her being homeless and destitute had nothing to do with her desire to reconcile with me.
All this happened about 2,000 kilometres away from our home town.
The odds of that chance meeting had to be less than winning Lotto, so I have to attribute it to the hand of God.

When I was out of money and these two elderly over heard I couldn't buy a lunch they went together and gave me some money to buy lunch, what hurts the most was my sister had money but has always been greedy with money and now she's ruining her daughter's life by holding her back to succeed in life.

[SandandWaves]

Kind of the elderly who helped you.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I was very happy this morning and I don’t remember why, I think it was knowing God loved me and I had met so many amazing people

This little boy (he was like 8) gave me his jollyrancher and told me I was pretty, literally the happiest moment of my life <33

My day is just starting, so it hasn’t been made yet. But yesterday I got to see my lady for the first time after I was away fishing for a week, hadn’t seen her in about ten days, so it was great to spend time with her. For today…I have a hockey game tonight vs a team whose goalie I’ve fought before, I think it’s all settled now, he didn’t act up the last two times we’ve played since the fight, but if he does anything cheap and gives me a reason to tune him up again, that would probably make my day, lmfao. I mean, our goalie sucks, we might not win a game all season, so I gotta find some fun elsewhere in the game😂

[SandandWaves]

glad you got to see your lady.

[WhiteSteve]

Thanks! Just got out of my hockey game too. No fights, but I scored a goal on that kid, so my day was made by that for today, haha

[SandandWaves]

woo 🥳hoo!

I gave a $80 gift card for dog grooming to a single mom I know because her husky is over heating with its thick winter coat and she doesn't have money for it yet. now the dog is happy. Happy instead of hot hot

I THINK a female accused me of something completely against what I stand for (and someone i asked for helped because I was gonna jump too conclusion) actually gave me nice and genuine advice calmed me down and now I just think it's whatever

Helping my older sister around the house because she always seems so much more relaxed and happy.

Well I don’t know if I can make someone’s day in any way or if I did something that made someone’s day.

However I don’t need anyone to do something for me to make my day. My life is almost always great. Never had any bothering issues as such.

My birthday. Friends that I didn't think would care, wished me happy birthday. Felt reaaallly good.

A big company offered to buy my ginseng roots above market value

[TheOgAnna]

A guy I know and really like found out that I can't have sugar so he decided not to eat any for the day in front of my because he didn't want me to feel bad 🙂

[Lyndsielee666]

I watched my neighbors house get raided for the third time this week. Definitely brightened my day.

My boss complimented me today!
