In a touching display of kindness, a young girl and her grandfather brightened a woman’s day with thoughtful gifts and a heartfelt note. This random act of generosity has captivated hearts online, encouraging others to spread kindness in their communities.
The story, shared on the Facebook page Love What Matters, recounts the experience of Sarah Adams, who encountered the girl and her grandfather during an outing. Adams recalls hearing someone call out, “Excuse me,” and turning around to find an 8 or 9-year-old girl offering her a bouquet of daffodils, a chocolate bunny, and a note. Stunned, Adams asked, “Oh my goodness, why?”
The girl responded with a profound message that adults often overlook: “Because you’re special, and people need to be told they’re special. And we all need to be kind to each other. So these are from me and my Granddad.”
Adams later read the note and was moved by the kind gesture. “I was completely taken aback and thanked her, telling her she’s incredibly kind, and that makes her special too. I doubt you’ll see this, but I just read your note properly and found your name. Thank you so much, Lily and Granddad.”
In a similar spirit, my daughter’s Girl Scout troop recently completed a “random acts of kindness” project. They surprised strangers by gifting items like popcorn and candy at a Redbox machine or leaving plants on the doorsteps of elderly neighbors. The happiness on the faces of those they surprised mirrored the joy my child felt knowing she had made a difference, no matter how small. Now, she’s eager to brainstorm more simple ways to uplift others.
The story shared by Adams about how Lily and her grandfather’s thoughtful gifts impacted her life only fuels our desire to spread kindness further. She concluded her post with, “You have completely made my day, if not my year, you inspirational girl, and I’ll treasure the note forever. I’ll look at it every time I feel down. And you’re right, we absolutely do need kindness.”
