We're well into Powering Kindness week, and already you've managed to overwhelm us with the sheer amount of kind deeds you've reported.
Here's a sample of some of the texts the shows have received so far:
I was listening to the show yesterday and it made me think about performing my first random act of kindness. I was waiting for the bus in the lashing rain on my way to work this morning and after half an hour of waiting it still hadn't arrived and I was late for work. I rang my boyfriend who came to collect me and drop me to work in town. I felt kinda bad about leaving the only other guy at the stop waiting so I told him to hop in the car and we gave him a lift into town! It costs nothing to be nice to people and I'll be doing it more often in future. Thanks for the inspiration.

I sent my boyfriend a picture of my boobs by text this morning, does that count?

I DIDN'T send my wife a picture of myself in the nude.
Here’s some other kind deeds being reported on Twitter:

My effort at #PoweringKindness for @SOIreland was to make everyone at @imaginehq a cup of tea. Important on these cold afternoons!
