Lyrics

Act of Kindness

"An act of kindness
Is what you show to me
It caught me by surprise in this town of glass and eyes
Kindness, so many people pass me by
But you warm me to my core and you left me wanting more"

Definitely a happier song today. This song brings me back to an instance about a year ago. It was my first tourney that I'd ever done and I was staying at a friend/teammate's mom's friend's house. My mom and I got up early one morning and decided to walk and get food. It was beautiful weather, not too hot and not too cold. When we got to the breakfast place, it was only slightly busy. We got seated and had our breakfast, which was delicious. During that time, we talked about many things, including Bastille and my upcoming soccer game. When it was time to pay for our food, we were told that someone had paid for us. It was such a strange thing. I had never experienced someone doing something like that. So now, whenever this song plays, I think of the random act of kindness from a stranger. Maybe it doesn't seem like much to anyone else, but it was a lot to me.
