Now my biggest enjoyment of knitting is making large blankets. Some square patterned and some embroidered (刺绣人). Over a long period of time I have managed to make about 15 and have kept them in storage but have always hoped one day I would be able to give them away free to people that needed them. A few years ago I found out that Oxfam would not be able to take them off my hands for me and send them abroad so I have just kept on making them, and continued putting them in storage as I have always believed one day they will become useful for something and help someone.

　　Today an act of kindness happened. Just in passing I spoke to a friend of a friend and my blankets came up in conversation. Now, as I expected, some of my blankets have gone to an elderly couple for extra warmth!

　　This really made me smile that I could contribute to this act of kindness and it just goes to show how something so little can be appreciated (感激) so much — and the feeling you get for that is AMAZING!

　　I hope one day I will be able to send my blankets abroad as an act of kindness to help poor children or adults. It is important to remember that we should always be grateful for what we do have in life as some people are not always as lucky as us. If we continue carrying out these acts of kindness that we do to make anyone smile, it will make us a better person. No one can take away that feeling you receive when you do a true act of kindness for someone.
