Good Deed

Back in school we were supposed to write a "Good Deed" everyday in our "homework diary". It was just a one-liner which summarised something good we did for the day. It could be as small as doing an errand for mom and so on. Basically it was to encourage students to cultivate a helping nature. I like the idea and we really used to look for opportunities to help so that we write about it.

And writing one unique one everyday was the toughest part. It used to get boring at times. And sometimes we would be late to school and we realise that we have'nt done/written the "good-deed". So we used to hurry-up and end up writing an imaginary one or a funny one like ones below (these are all I could remember for now)

I helped my brother by doing his homework.

I helped an old woman cross the road even if she did'nt want to.

I helped my mom by going with her to the shop.
