Small things can often mean a great deal. For the past five years readers of the "Toronto Star"'s website have been telling each other that, as they shared their stories in a feature called "Acts of Kindness." The common thread is that a stranger helped when it was needed most, without thought of a reward and often without leaving a name.
Since its debut in December, 2004, "Acts of Kindness" has become a daily fixture at "thestar.com." About 4,000 stories have been submitted and 2,000 have been published. "Acts of Kindness," the book, represents the best of the best - a collection of 200 of the most memorable tales.
The stories are a reminder that goodness is non-denominational, non-political, and transferable across race and language. They also remind us that although our lives are full of hard realities, the smallest gesture can raise a spirit or lift a heart, and the time to do it is now.
