I love sharing mitzvahs that I receive. Here are two.

Last weekend, my husband and I dined with some friends at the restaurant that a few weeks before had given us a free dessert. This time a different employee did the same thing. My husband and I were shocked and delighted.

I received a wonderful thank you note today from a woman I have never met. She is the sister of a client of mine who was deeply effected in a recent hurricane. My client had emailed a request on behalf of her sister  that she needed help. I sent money to help. My client was blown away when she recieved over $6,000 dollars to send to help her sister. Her thank you note was deeply heartfelt and proved to me that helping a stranger can make a huge difference.
