One big act of kindness !

Posted a day ago by writer Desiree Anstey on Google.
Summerside PEI man places a "want ad " for a motorcycle
Little did Justin Doiron know that by placing an ad for a motorcycle that he could putter around on thru the summer that a man from New Minas Nova Scotia would bestow such a gift upon him ..Justin posted the ad online looking for a jalopy Motorcycle ..Justin says " I was just looking for an old motorcycle in working order for running back and forth and just running around for the summer , not being too fussy about looks as long as it worked and I was willing to pay at least 500.00 for one ", he sais he did own a motorcycle for 3 years before he outgrew that one so he decided to put feelers out for another bigger one.
The very next day he started exchanging messages with Robert Durber from New Minas and they both being motorcycle enthusiasts got into some very interesting conversations about bikes..Robert asked Justin if he was the kind of guy who would look after a bike take care of it keep it clean and store it in a nice place over winter ...Robert had a motorcycle for sale and Justin kind of got the idea that Robert was also the kind of man who took care of the bike as well ..Justin asked Robert what price he had on his motorcycle. .The response took Justin off of his feet and was a complete surprise...
Robert says he wanted to exchange the bike which is a 2007 Honda Shadow Spirit which had only racked 5,000 km over the years , all he wanted was the litterbox that Justin posted on line earlier that year , Robert wanted to find the right person to bestow the motorcycle to someone worthy of its keep .Robert never visited the online site before and searched for the right person who he knew was out there who could give the bike a good home. Trade a motorcycle for a cat litter box ? huh?
Justin posted the litter box online after his cat Fenway ran off and didn't return so Justin sadly gave up and posted the litter box. .sold it actually and felt bad when Robert asked for the trade..
Justin said he posted and sold the litter box after he gave up thinking that Fenway didn't show after weeks. .He also heard about two kittens found abandoned in a ditch and decided he was going to adopt them...Then Fenway came back from the dead walked into the yard as if nothing happened..Justin had to buy new litter boxes again ...He went to NS with a truck and trailer not knowing that Robert was actually looking for the right person to take and keep his bike..as Robert was downsizing it was the perfect match.
When Justin went to see Robert in New Minas he was floored when Robert passed him the keys and told Justin to enjoy the motorcycle like he did for a few years..the whole purpose of this act is to pass the kindness along..

Itsnt it a great thing to know there are real people out in the world that can actually be so giving as to do that for someone...not sure where the cat had been but he had been missing for quite awhile ..I seen them go for the summer by times and if someone feeds them they stay where they are ..

it is isn't it I am so proud to live in Nova Scotia and to read things like this is such a joy I also gifted a horse to a little girl a lot of years ago and it felt so good and you should have seen her face when I told her dad to go get a trailer and haul Deckker home...

My greatest joy would be to meet the people who do these acts ..I did once gift a horse to a little girl ..I rescued from a woman who was going to have him shot so I took him spent a small amount to vet him and feed him up ..little girl and Deckker fell for each other so I gave him to her ..he was old but brought so much life and joy to her for a couple years , made me feel good ..

yes it is but whenever I get chance I always encourage people not to buy from breeders there are so many pets waiting on lists to be adopted that have so much to give to a new owner..i am glad I have Kodi..he was abandoned after his owner died I am lucky hes the greatest..

yes I agree too much foolishness and hate in the world today kind of takes the edge off of a lot of looking forward to the good things
