Pondering - Nothing
Yesterday morning I did a good deed without thinking twice about it and then nothing.
You see, this guy got on the bus and he didn't have the fare money and in a kind of automatic reaction, I reached for my small bag of coins, took out the needed fare and handed it to him. I didn't even wait for a thank your or expect one. I tied off my bag, put it away as I handed over the coins and continued talking with my friend. I never thought twice about, I just did it and expected nothing in return. I handed him the money, gave him a quick nod and, nothing. I felt nothing. I thought I was suppose to feel good when I did a good deed, like a cosmic, 'hey, you did a good deed' feeling, but nothing. I didn't necessarily feel good, certainly not bad, just nothing.
Well, at least I didn't feel bad and maybe that's just how it suppose to be - you do a good deed and you move on. That's it, and ..., I'm Ok with that. Nothing, and you move on. Simple. How it should be.
