Watching the girl I was dating at the time tear up because I brought her flowers - she was 28 and it was the first time anyone had brought them to her.

There was a lady I was dating who had been used, abused, and generally mistreated A LOT. It was a JOY to simply do kind things for her and know that it was a new experience for her.

Sometimes it's enough to not be a complete arse. Even though you may not be able to think of any profound effects you may have had on a person there is still a good chance of someone being grateful towards you for something you don't realize.

On the Flip side

I believe the biggest impact I've ever had on many has been with a Barret .50 cal, usually from over a kilometer away. I diffidently knocked them into the eye of terror. Don't worry they were bad people... I think.

Next is probably meeting a super hot, double master degree woman and tricking her into marrying me. Oh, did I mention she'll strip dance for me. That's how she got knocked up. She's a keeper!

Here's one of my trophy's

I made my boyfriend cry for the second time in his adult life. The first time was when he found out in his teens that his Dad had cancer (recovered and is doing fantastic), the second was when my dumb assed self thought the relationship was doing too well and didn't seem right and things were progressing too well (dated alot of jerks prior) I told him I didn't know where things were going and if I wanted to be with him. He left the apartment, I slept on the couch that night. That morning we didn't say a word to each other, in the parking lot I started crying and said I couldn't imagine being without him, he started crying and said he couldn't imagine his without me either. 10 years later and we are still blissfully in love and still living together :)

The Youngest.

very nice he the youngest?

Yes Sir, he's the youngest. Ronin Leonidas Carrasco will be hard as stone, sharp as a razor's edge and a hell of a lot better than me in everything. He's one cool little fella. Everyone should have a few of these bad boys...

But, he eats a lot! He's expensive! He keeps me from painting. He's a little demon.

Well I picked up on this thread a while ago and apart from the lady who became my wife I was at a loss of what to put. Generally I just try to do the little things that help and make people feel a bit happier.
But there's one thing I do remember.
My wife and I live by a park in which there's a cafe which we'd frequented for years. Anyhow with our kids around we got into conversation with an elderly couple. Turned out he was ex Royal Air Force, as I am. Well he had nobody to share his memories with and we gelled. Well, to keep this short he never got his medals from WW2 - said he wasn't bothered. I'd taken lots of notes and said I'd write up his service 'life' and he kindly lent me his papers to help. So I got hold of my contacts in the RAF and sent in his papers. He received a small box a couple of weeks later, his medals were inside. His wife told me he was so moved, couldn't wait to show me.

But that's not much compared to the rest of you - just a little something I'm happy to have done.

I trained two years to make shots at 1200 meters, and had to take the shot at 28 feet. So, one of my greatest impacts (pun not intended, sorry) was shooting someone that didn't halt when instructed to do so.

A better impact is my current marriage of 26 years and our 21 year old son (currently living in his grandmother's kitchen. so very expensive to feed him. anyone have a couple boxes of MRE's he can snack on?)

That's a lot. That's a hell of a lot. Good job, be proud of that. WWII was as bad as it gets. I'm grateful for his service. I feel grateful for what you did for him. Thank you, from me and my family. That's was very cool.

My job is teaching English skills, interview skills and basic phone skills to people who want to work at contact centers. One trainee of mine was so disappointed after being the only one in class [out of 5] not making it during his job application that he shaved his head [it was really long at the time]. All of us were concerned because he wouldn't participate in class, he would just sit in the corner and sulk all day. He felt so bad he seemed to have this dark raincloud over him and we [myself and the class] thought was that he might end his life. A bit if gentle encouragement over the week helped him turn it around and he got hired the following week.

waghorn41, that was most noble of you. This thread is really great because it shos that there is still good will in the world.

Cheers!
