The most recent selfless thing you've done lately

Post by Triert »

I found a small blind dog the other day and managed to return it to it's owner.

How about all of you? What's the most recent nice thing you've done?

I purchased a Deluxe WiiU Bundle for my younger brothers because my parents couldn't afford one. I've lost the ability to play new Nintendo consoles because my condition has eaten away too much muscle mass for me to manipulate the controllers (the only controllers I can manipulate successfully are those similar to DualShock) as well as much of my love for the company, but that doesn't mean I should leave my family hanging. I like seeing kids happy. I also help with homework.

I also donated to the Norfolk Children's Hospital since it has been a huge part of keeping me alive, and I want kids with any disease or disability to have that same hope.

And I help Patrick with personal business when I can, and I offer the same to anyone.

I don't know, I don't keep track of the selfless things I do, they just HAPPEN. Plus I don't realize they're selfless until I read something about someone being selfless and realizing how selfish I am.

I'm a ****.

My Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa sponsors four Red Cross Blood Drives each school year on the Elizabeth City Campus of College of the Albemarle. While I have never given blood, I am a regular volunteer at these drives, and at the most recent one(which was back in March), I manned the canteen from when we opened the doors to donors at 10AM until clean-up somewhere between 4 and 5PM, a personal record for volunteering time at these drives. If I remember correctly, we collected 41 units on a goal of 40.

Much more minor, recent gifts to my fiancee include The collectors Editions of Netunia Victory and God of War Ascension, the Artbooks for Valkyria Chronicles 2 and 3, and a pre-order for Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D.

i used to give this cat that looked pretty skinny food every now and then when i could, either when i brought some of the canned cat food from home or whenever i bought some beef jerky from the nearby mini-mart. that cat would always appear in the lot of what i would assume to be the owner's home. it could barely even meow and it was pretty bony when i would pet it. it stopped appearing one day, and i can only hope that the cat was taken or given to someone else who could actually take care of it.

more recently tho, i bought dev a steam game, which turns out won't even work because wow game developing bugs and whatnot. something about graphics cards.
idk i suppose it's the thought that counts

Don’t dwell on the past because it is full of sadness, in stead look to the future because you never know what it has in store for you.”

A guy had been harassing my friend for a while. By harassing, i mean BADLY. Sticking his hand in inappropriate places and even forcing her to date him, then trying to rape her. She lived long distance and would tell me the terrible things this guy does to her, so i texted one of her friends while he was in the act and told said friend to get the police. About 2 hours later i was texted by the friend saying he'd been locked up.

So basically i saved a rape victim :3
That counts, right?
hey there! I don't have anything to put here for the moment, you can just move along now.

Okay so in my neighborhood there is a cat with three legs. His name is Snoopy because he's always looking for food. My brother and I made a prosthetic leg/wheel think so now he can walk around and hunt easier and we gave him a nice bowl of cat food and we helped him to an animal shelter.

Ok, so I'm a part of another forum, and I have a close friend there who's been having a lot of personal problems. Something really bad happened that caused him to snap, and well, he was actually thinking of leaving said forum. The first thing I do: show him all the love and compassion I could give him. The thing is, I was in such a depressive mood myself, but that didn't stop me from doing what I could to help him out. Even after, I'm not sure if he will still leave, but he seems to be doing a bit better now.

This is a friend from a MLP forum that I moderate, btw. We really don't have any other form of contact since he doesn't use Skype, so of course I'd do whatever I could to convince him to stay.

I saw some homeless guy and his dog on the street and I had a bag of Peanuts with me at the time so I gave him The bag.

And also a bottle of water. He was super happy and said he Loved peanuts.

That made me feel good about myself. I feel bad that I couldn't really help his dog though. Unless he gives it some of that water.
