Have you done something just for the good feeling it gave you - like giving up your seat on the bus for someone, opened a door for someone, helped someone you didnt even know? Or has a stranger done something for you that made you feel good all over? Tell us about it here.

I watched a very distracted/ harried bank teller serve the two people in front of me and my son. When it came our turn she was polite and said all the right things but was just flat and monotoned. Knowing how I was suffering the prechristmas blues I proceeded to the local bakery and bought a festive cupcake. I returned to the teller , her face lit up in astonishment. I hope the rest of her day was a little brighter! My children tell me I am embarrassing because I often find myself doing little things for others when out and about but I hope as they grow up they are kind enough to perform their own RAKs...............
