Someone got a great parking spot and time on the meter. Just one more act of random kindness.

thanks for sharing. I have heard stories where a bit of kindness gets passed along. I man I greatly respected once told me of a time where he handed a person a 5 gallon container of gas as he was driving along with the comment of pass it along and then a few years down the line he ran out of gas only to be given back the container full of gas with the same comment.

why was that chick feeding a meter that didn't have a car parked at it?

I think it's amazing and also kind of  sad. You see the look of such surprise and confusion on these people's faces, all because someone has been kind to them.

Have to believe this was "staged" but what a wonderful world it could be if this was a common practice! It would be so simple in our everyday lives - random acts of kindness.

I was referring to the video in Russia, mouse clicks = money. ppl do anything for money, playing I can't get up is pretty easy to do. Unfortunately there's ppl like that.

Love this... But my sick mind I'm thinking, "dude totally has a body in that suitcase, and other dudes random act of kindness was helping dispose of a body" sometimes I can't control my mind... Too many Criminal minds/CSI's I guess! ; P

Thanks so much for sharing this!  It reminds me of the similar Liberty Mutual commercials - which I still love, even if I don't work there anymore.  Take responsibility and DO something, even if it's a little something.  It should make you feel good when you are kind to someone else - and they're more likely to pass the kindness along!

Of course it was staged.....it's the message about paying it forward that the video was meant to convey.

I love it that people are out there making such videos to remind of us how easy it is to brighten someone's day.

Love the video but... Am I the only one who noticed there's not even a car parked by meter that lady is putting money in...?

We should all be encouraged to give back and instead of taking, pushing or shoving our way thru life.

Hey everyone. I am working on this Kindness for Boston project. It could turn into something really big if we get a lot of people into it. If you could, I'd appreciate it if you read the description provided on the event page on what this is about. It's for a full day of kindness somewhere in Boston where we will all meet up. Please spread word with your friends and family and anyone who would like to become apart of this great thing! 


I live in Florida, which is why its hard to get this out. (I'm going to fly up there for this.) I had the idea after all of the bad events in Boston occurred. It only takes one caring person and one network to turn this into something big!! I believe it will make people smile. Thank you kindly.

Is it weird that I believe life is really this way? You never know how much someone is struggling and your very second-long interaction can influence them in a positive or negative way. You never know when someone is on the verge of giving up completely. Set out to change the world, by changing your actions -- I love it. 

Sometimes I wish I could just put my sincerity of wanting to help the world on my resume and grad school applications, asking them to give me the tools to do so! Yes, for real.
