Thanks for this offer...plus it made me evaluate the good done for me! My best friend told me how "adult" I handled my work load and stress all the time. At first I wasn't sure how to take it, but felt the goodness of her comment and realized that she was trying to show me that in the midst of my being overwhelmed, that she saw all the good that I did. It sounds pretty simple, but it has really stuck with me and made me feel a little less anxious about the way I look at the stress I deal with on a daily basis (as a teacher). Such a great friend...sure love her!
Anyway, thanks for the offer!

I was recently on my first cruise ever and on the third day came down with a-typical pnemonia and a heart condition that I didn't know I had. I was taken by ambulance to Doctor's Hospital in Nassau. My best friend who was on the cruise with her husband, came of the ship and stayed wih me for four days. She paid for her own hotel and meals and sat with me for hours each day while I was being treated. That is the most wonderful thing I can think of for anyone to do for me. She missed four days of that cruise to be with me.

I was nominated for a scholarship at college and I won. It was so nice of my professors to write letters on my behalf.
This week my husband had a business dinner at a fancy restaurant (my favorite). So, he brought home a piece of their delicious cheesecake for me!

Last night, my daughter and I went to Subway to pick up dinner for the family. When we got to the counter to pay, the cashier informed us that a man that was two people ahead of us in line had left $100 and instructions to pay for the rest of the people in line - as long as the money held out. Our dinner was completely paid for! I was totally shocked and blessed.

I was having a challenging day out trying to get errands done with my three boys aged 9,3, and 2. While I was at the haircutters to get the boys' hair cut, this woman leaned over and said "You're doing a good job mom". She went on to tell me how she always appreciated it when someone said that to her when her kids were little. I appreciated the comment and it really picked me up and allowed me to finish what I had to do.
Thanks for entering me!

Recently when I was feeling a little depressed, my co-worker actually noticed and asked if I was OK and needed to talk about anything. It's a small thing, but I think the most beautiful thing a person can do for another is notice when they seem sad and offer to be there for them. We should all do it more often.

I thought I entered a comment but I don't see it so please forgive me if it is a double! Something nice: my neighbor gave me agave pups for my garden.
Thanks!

Recently I was let go from my job, three coworkers of mine came over to my house after it happened with dinner and letters of recommendation for me which really brightened my day and made me feel like it wasn't the end of the world.
Thanks for having such a great blog and doing awesome giveaways!
Hi! I added you on Twitter and tweeted about the contest (I'm infiniteshelf there too)
Something good someone did for me : my neighbor helped me carry my bags upstairs after I fell in the stairs, even if i was okay! :)

Winning this book would be beautiful!
It is final exam time in university, and even though we are both very busy, my boyfriend took the time (that he didn't have!) to come over to my house, just to spend a little time with me. It was so sweet.
Thanks for the opportunity to win this book!

Something beautiful...
My dear friend lends me her listening ear while I release my tension, fears, etc re: my son and his special needs. She also researches things in regards to his issues...she shares what she finds. She also attends meeting in re:to him with my husband and I. Yep, what she does for me is very beautiful.

A friend recently sent me a card letting me know she was thinking of me - it was so sweet, and i hadn't heard from her in a while. It was so nice to be thought of and made me appreciate our friendship so much - with just a simple gesture! Thanks for the chance to win!

An online pal on one of my book trading sites just sent me a book out of the blue- no trade, just a special surprise in my mailbox. I don't have a large social circle so gestures like this from online pals mean a lot to me.

A relative who works at a doctor's office was
able to get me some samples of medicine I have
to have. She saved me at least $150. As a
senior living mostly on social security, this
was a huge good deed.

I am moving, and though it doesn't seem like a huge thing I had someone drop off a huge stack of boxes on my front step just the other day. I have no idea who, and I know they had no clue that just the day earlier I had run out of boxes.
I think it would have to be a friend giving up her time to do my photography for my engagement pictures at no cost because she loves me and photography.

My husband does wonderful things for me all the time. He won't let me do things around the house because I have a bad back. He takes good care of me everyday.

When my father passed recently, my best friend came over from quite a distance to watch my children, so I could be with him. Later she helped my husband break the news to the children. She is a blessing to my family!
i had my gallbladder removed in march and my sweet kids pretty much waited on me hand and foot :)
