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.

Hi, Its a great feeling when you see someones face and they are so surprised that a complete stranger is willing to help them out or give them something for nothing. If more people did this the world would be a much happier place. A good one is to cellotape a parking pass that hasnt expired onto the pay booth, so when the next person comes along to pay for parking your ticket it there for them to have. I always buy heaps of extra time as I have two little ones and things always take longer than you think. A cool story is 'Pay it Forward' by Catherine Ryan Hyde.
