So I done my 'random act of kindness' today, by buying a homeless man a cup of tea to warm him up, cos surely he must have been freezing!

Don't know if it's kindness or not but i help with homeless dogs.
It's definitely kindness!
I felt really bad today because I saw one of them in town but I didn't have enough money to get him anything, but he did have a cup of coffee so hopefully he was at least warm for a few minutes.
I agree
Feels good to be able to do something for others. and make somebody else smile
First I saw a van with it's side door (the slidey one where you get your tools) open so I pulled my bicycle over at the roundabout and pointed at the side of his van. Eventually he got the picture and by doing a speed up/quick slow down got it to shut it's self. Earned myself a thumbs up from him!
Next when the bus pulled up there was a guy running as quickly as possible in the icy slushy snow for it too, so I fumbled around with my money for a bit longer than usual so he could catch up and not have to wait 30mins in the cold! Don't think he realise how close he came to getting left behind!
Ive also struck up a little friendship with the old man from a few doors down who is very doddery and sweet and cant really get out in the snow.
IMO Noone ever becomes poorer by giving.
That's lovely! I always give what I can to the person that sits outside Superdrugs, I always see him, and will always have a chat with him, I guess what most people miss about people being homeless is how much they've been through and how inspiring they can actually be!
Great that you was able to give him a coat
