Kindnesses 133, 134 and 135 and 136

133: I was in a fairly bad mood but I still performed my kindness. I was at the gym in the change room and someone had forgotten her hair elastic. I gave her two of my extras that I keep in my gym bag, one for using and one for an extra in case she forgot again. She thanked me and seemed happy.

134: Today my kindness was a little unconventional but it also reminded me of why I'm doing this. I was getting a haircut and chatting away with my stylist. I was just being my normal, slightly overbearing, very friendly and overly opinionated self, which was making her laugh. At the end of the cut she told me I was her favourite customer of the day, because I was hilarious. While my goal is not to be hilarious, it is to put people in a better mood. So it made up for my bad mood previously because I reconsidered how my conduct affects others.

135: My kindness was not well-received today. I thought to give away the tickets for a race this weekend that we can't go to, but no one wanted them. No one even said "thanks anyway." So much for that one. I still tried though.

136:  My kindness today was to give coffee to the bus driver. See my mom blog for the reason I wasn't in the mood to do anything nice for anyone today. I still did though,, because I am committed.
