Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
Thank you so much to the gentleman who approached my mom and I while we were waiting to pay to get into Art in the Park on Saturday around 2 p.m. You gave us a couple of tickets and told us to enjoy ourselves...we did and your kind gesture truly made my day! You have been spotted!
On Thursday around noon my elderly father drove his scooter up to the corner store on Jefferson and must of dropped his wallet on his way home. A teenage girl wearing a Tim Hortons uniform returned the wallet completely intact and wouldn't even take a reward for her honesty/ kindness. You have been spotted.
I was grabbing a few groceries at fairways in Brentwood and an elderly man told me he had misplaced his cane in the store. I told him not to worry I'll go look up the isles for you. I couldn't find it so I told him I'd go get someone from the store to help him . While I waited in line one woman said she had heard me talking to him and hadn't noticed the cane either. As the cashier rings my groceries in I went to grab my wallet and it wasn't in my purse. I said I just live up the road I'll be right back in 5, I'm so sorry is that ok?
The woman who overheard me talking to the elderly man over heard this and walked over and said I'll pay for it. I said oh no it's ok I'll be back in 5. She insisted, said its only 20 dollars, let me help you. I have never been so overwhelmed and thankful. A big thank you to who bought my groceries. I would like to repay you if I can find you and I will definitely be paying this forward.
Hello! I just wanted to give a shout-out to the gentleman who was ahead of me in the Tim Horton's drive-thru line (off Central), around noon on Friday, June 3rd. Thank you so much for paying for my order! I was getting some much needed caffeine to get my co-worker and I through the remainder of our hectic day. Your message was to have a good day and I just wanted to let you know that you made two people's day! Thank you so much! I will definitely pay it forward :)

I wanted to talk about my experience on June 2nd at Red Lobster. I had the most amazing waitress, Lois. She was so sweet, to the point where every couple of minutes, she made sure everything was going the way it was. After we finished and the bill came, on the back of the receipt she wrote, "what a beautiful family you have." After paying, she sat down on our table and began asking questions about Islam and Ramadan. She was surprised at what our religion served and the good that comes with it. As we walked out, she told us to come visit her again.
On Wednesday morning around 11:00am I had to rush my dog to the veterinarian's in Belle River because I knew he was dying. When I got there I knew there was no way I would be able to carry him in since I was hysterical and he weighed over 70lbs and could not move. A man was walking by after leaving Tim Hortons and I asked him to help me. He gave his food to my mom and carried my dog in and then stayed with me and tried his best to comfort me and reassure me that everything was going to be ok. I need to find him to thank him in person for helping me through what was a horrible experience. Again, this was Wednesday, June 1st around 11:00am at the vet in Belle River. He was wearing an orange safety shirt with yellow stripes that had the sleeves cut off, he had tattoos and I'm pretty sure he was bald. If anyone happens to know him or if by chance he reads this...could someone please respond to this post!!
I was in an accident today. A deer ran in front of my car and despite my efforts to try to spare the deer, I was unsuccessful. Not only did the deer hit my car but the officer on scene was required to euthanize this poor animal. My heart aches. I was very distraught and there were a number of people who stopped to help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to the man who stopped, the young lady who made some phone calls and the woman and her mother who provided comfort. You are all good Samaritans and I will forever be grateful for your assistance and support. My heart is just broken but you helped me more than you can imagine. You are all amazing people.
Unfortunately I had to spend a great part of my night last night on the ER Ouellette Campus, obviously was very busy. There was many people and amongs them I noticed a mother with a child that had an injury to his head. After siting there for the longest time the young boy asked his mom for chips, she got up to get them from the vending machines, however, she put her money in and the chips got stuck, she started to hit the machine hoping the chips would fall with no luck, the security guard heard the noise came to check out what was going on and rudely told her not to hit (his) machine, she explained what happened, he in return said was going to get someone to look into it. Went to sit back at his desk and no one ever showed up. There was a young lady there, that like myself seen the incident, after a while of waiting, and no one ever showing up to help, this young lady got up, went to the vending machine and got another bag of chips and went towards the lady , that was holding her son as he had fallen asleep by then, had a few words wiith her and gave her the chips. In this world we need more people like that. If anyone knows who she is, please tell her she been spotted , what a nice gesture.
