The nicest thing someone's ever done for meIn amongst all the tales of bitterness and poo, we occasionally get fluffy stories that bring a small tear to our internet-jaded eyes.
In celebration of this, what is the nicest thing someone's done for you? Whether you thoroughly deserved it or it came out of the blue, tell us of heartwarming, selfless acts by others.
Failing that, what nice things have you done for other people, whether they liked it or not?

Three years agoWhile working a crappy telesales job for a man who I did not like very much at all, I fell pregnant.
I was (and still am) unmarried, living at home and studying part time. Pregnancy was not on the plan.
I was very depressed and considering ending the pregnancy when my boss asked me what was up. I told him.
He immediately changed, we sat down together and he told me about his life, his son whom he had never met and how being a parent meant so much to him, even though he had never met the child.
"That life is wonderful, the closest you will ever come to a miracle" he told me.
I think if I had not had that talk I would not have my amazing son. That was an act of kindness which changed my life.
