The nicest thing someone's ever done for me
In 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?

Don't label yourself...
I can't really say that I completely understand your exact situation, but I can say that I understand the sentiments. I can tell you that the more you do, the better you feel. And that is what is important to me. All the bad and horrible things that go on and that we witness cause us to judge all people poorly. And it is my experience that this is true; the majority of people I have encountered in various situations are self-absorbed vicious feral subhumans. However, I have learned that the above fact is entirely irrelevant to my own mental health. I don't expect thanks or rewards or kudos for what I do. I don't let people wear me down with their own mental problems and social disorders; I do good things because it makes me feel better, and there's not a damned thing wrong with that. There's a lot more I can say about it, but for now, keep your head up and keep moving forward. Don't let the barstuds grind you down.
