Victorian Mum Shares ‘Incredible’ Random Act Of Kindness

A Victorian mum was left floored after buying a second-hand car and discovering the owner had left her a gift of “incredible thoughtfulness”

By Sarah McPhee

A single mother has shared an “incredible” act of kindness that brought her to tears after she purchased a second-hand car.

Jen Willis, from the Victorian town of Daylesford, northwest of Melbourne, bought the vehicle privately last week but soon discovered the owner had left her a heartwarming surprise.

A white envelope containing three $50 notes had been tucked between the sun visor and roof.

“This is a random act of kindness,” the note reads.

“Please use to spoil your family in a way that makes you happy.

“Just felt it on my heart to do this for you, in what sounded like a challenging time for you.”

Ms Willis said it was “such a beautiful random act of kindness” to be gifted.

“With only one adult now in our household here in Daylesford, I did a two for one with our cars and sold our Prado and Suzuki Swift to a dealer and bought a Subaru Outback privately and when I pulled down the sun visor as I went to drive my new car home, this fell into my lap,” she wrote on Facebook.…

Lonely From Social Distancing? Here is One of Our Favourite Videos of Humanity Hugging It Out.

By Good News Network - April 16th 2020

It has been almost 14 years since Australian man Juan Mann first stood in a city square with a large cardboard sign that read “Free Hugs”—but his iconic campaign has left a lasting imprint on the world.

Mann popularized the slogan after he filmed his Free Hugs Campaign music video to the Sick Puppies song “All the Same” back in 2006—and it has since been viewed a whopping 78 million times.

So for all of you who may be feeling down and lonely during these turbulent times of social distancing, we’re reposting this video to remind you that these stay-at-home restrictions are only temporary and our communities will be stronger as a result of it.…

Published on Leave a comment on Ecosia: The Search Engine That Funded Our New Trees! We Say Thank You.

MANY, MANY THANKS GOES TO ECOSIA AND THEIR FOUNDER CHRISTIAN KROLL WHO FUNDED THE MANY, MANY TREES IN OUR LAND AUSTRALIA THIS YEAR 2020. IT WAS A ROUGH START FOR US AND ECOSIA MEMBERS WORLDWIDE FUNDED 26,446 TREES IN ONE DAY JANUARY 23 - EVERY 45 SEARCHES ON ECOSIA FUNDS THE PLANTING OF A TREE SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD OF WHICH WE HAVE BEEN GRATEFUL RECIPIENTS!!!

About this time last year, I made one of my Best Discoveries on the Internet ever - ECOSIA! I refer to it as the Search Engine With A Heart because it isn't just tech and profits. 80% goes to Planting Trees and Reforesting Countries in urgent need equipping them for Climate Change and also providing Fruit Trees to Feed People in Needy Lands. Christian majored on Tech Studies at University and wasn't sure what his next move would be. It was on a holiday to a country at that time, who were planting lots of Trees he was Envisioned with the Concept we now know today as Ecosia - he could start a Charity Search Engine and channel Profits into Tree Planting, Hey? Unlike Google, our Searches are Private.…

Published on Leave a comment on Australia’s Leading Benefactors – A Very Compassionate Couple!

Andrew And Nicola Forrest, Well Known For Their Philanthropy Towards People In AUSTRALIA And Globally. They Are Co-Founders Of The Minderoo Foundation In Western Australia, Which Gives Huge Sums Of Money To Humanitarian Projects, Scientific Research And Environmental Conservation Projects For The Benefit of Mankind. As Billionaires With A Heart, They Keep Growing Wealth And Giving Most Of It Away, Unlike Most Billionaires Who Are Inseparably Attached To Their Fortunes, Hey?

For those who are not familiar with the word Philanthropy, it has to do with benevolence and giving freely, expecting nothing in return. It consists of privately (independent of governments) funding initiatives for the public good and focusing on the quality of life. Philathrophic is a person or organization seeking to promote the welfare of others. They are generous and benevolent.

From what I have been reading today, Andrew and Nicola are all of that. I'm praising God for my discoveries about them and wondering where I have been in recent years not to have heard about them before. Having spent much time in Independent Natural Health Research for many years and several Inspirational Websites in recent years is a sure distraction from a lot of things people who like to keep up with Current Affairs.…

Published on Leave a comment on Treasures In Contentment – A Different Perspective

By Janet Vargas Owner of this Website

"Let's live in Contentment - Happiness is more tangible that way, not so far from our grasp" (JV)  I will share some good insights with you. Would you care to join me?
Contentment is a good thing, it is not dependent on circumstances for our peace of mind. Can you see the beauty of that? Maybe you will after reading this post.
A family member said these words to me today: "I am going to enjoy what I have in life.....I am going to be content with the things that I have and not bother with the things I don't have. I will make the most of everything I have that is good.....it makes me contented and happy. If we want to be happy, we need to stop and think about what we have. Obviously, you have them because you liked them at some stage.I'm going to enjoy them now!"

I can give a hearty "YES" to that because her words (above) are SO TRUE! Happiness is not in endless possessions, the latest car and furniture or that something big you are waiting to happen - whatever that may be - Happiness is within your grasp once you see and find the Value of Contentment.…

Published on Leave a comment on How we See Ourselves is So Important – It Can Give You A Better Outlook On Life

By Janet Vargas Owner of this Website

I will share with you a Life Principle.
The way we look at ourselves is important and has a lot to do with how we experience life. Yes, the way we look inward has to do with our outlook on life.
We all have self-talk, an inner chatter. A dialogue as it were.

Take A Breather - Be Kind To Yourself Each Day

Make sure your dialogue is kind and give it some guidelines on a daily basis until it becomes your friend - bringing to mind positive thoughts, cheerful thoughts and loving thoughts. Yes, feed yourselves this type of thinking until it becomes natural.

Because our inner chatter is somewhat negative for most and unruly for some, with content that is disturbing and sometimes troublesome if not kept in check. Yes, you can monitor this self talk and tell it what to say, so to speak. You can decide the things you would like to hear. 

Our God given Power of Choice is a wonderful thing. We can choose what we want in life_ company, past-time and interests, food and cuisine, TV programs and websites etc and we can determine what type of thoughts we like to think, so we can see ourselves and life around us differently. …
