The time where I witnessed an act of kindness was actually a very close person of mine and it was actually my dad as he was helping someone out. So it started when we were driving through with our car and we were about to go home and there was like a person coming up to my dad’s car and he asked for some money as he needed to go somewhere else but he didn’t have enough money So my dad was first asking him some questions or like where he wanted to go and where was he staying and the guy was pretty poor and he was with his son and he said that he had nowhere to go so what I felt was I felt that he was lying somehow but my dad still gave him the money and we left and went home and I thought that it was such a nice thing to do and I’ve learned a lot from it as I’ve learned to actually learn to actually help someone out even though they might not use our kindness for what they actually said it was but helping someone else would actually benefit us as someday when we need help someone else would also help us. That’s what I’ve learned from my dad.

The time I witnessed an act of kindness was with a very close person of mine, my dad, as he was helping someone out. It started when we were driving in our car and were about to go home. A person approached my dad's car and asked for some money because he needed to go somewhere but didn't have enough. My dad first asked him some questions about where he wanted to go and where he was staying. The man was quite poor and was with his son, and he said he had nowhere to go. I felt that he might be lying, but my dad still gave him the money. We then left and went home. I thought it was such a nice thing to do, and I learned a lot from it. I learned to help someone out, even if they might not use our kindness for what they said. Helping someone else can benefit us because someday, when we need help, someone else will also help us. That's what I've learned from my dad.
