As I contemplated the idea of this blog I was eating a sandwich at an outdoor cafe. I had a few pieces of crust left, which gave me the idea to go back and buy a bread roll to take to the Hudson River bank. I found a bench with several sparrows nearby and started to toss them bread crumbs.
I hadn't done something like this for years, and I don't know why. This simple act accomplished such a wonderful feeling! In the past, when I've wanted to help animals I've volunteered with local dog rescue services (fostering them or transporting dogs to adoption events and vets), or brought supplies to animal shelters.
Helping animals can be something small, long term, or perhaps silly in some cases; but always welcomed. And as an animal lover myself, I will also welcome any "Random Acts of Kindness" provided to animals.
