Dare #13 - Free Coffee

"A little kindness from person to person is better than a vast love for all humankind."  - RD

So this week's Deliberate Act of Kindness involves $5 and a coffee....or tea...or other hot drink. But it's not about YOU drinking it.

Such a simple idea and easy enough to both do and afford....so I hope you will have a go.


Thanks to my sister-in-law Tati, this is Dare #13 for the year.

Translation of the photo: "Once in Naples, in the Sanita' quarter (suburb), when someone was happy, because something had gone well, instead of paying for one coffee they payed for two and left the second coffee, the one that was already paid for, for the next client. The gesture was called "the suspended coffee". Then, once in while a poor person would appear to ask if there was a "suspended". It was a way as another to offer a coffee to humanity. ~ Luciano de Crescenzo"

I had a good friend do this a week or so ago and she simply said to the barista...."Here's money for another coffee. If you see someone who looks like they need it, can you please give them a freebie?" Easy!

I know there are others already on board with this idea...check out: Suspended Coffee Australia

So this week....get out, head to a cafe/coffee shop (have a cuppa yourself, or not) and then leave a gift of suspended coffee behind. It may not go to someone homeless but it will surely be a blessing for the one who does receive it.
