Random acts of kindness

For my random act of kindness, I was able to help my roommate get into the sport of boxing. He had expressed earlier to me that he had an interest in learning how to box, but nothing had ever come of it. Recently, I had to take a trip back home to Chicago for a few days, and while there, I was able to find an old pair of boxing gloves I had bought but barely used. Upon returning back from home, I presented him with the pair of gloves (I had bought them new for $75) for free, as well as took him to the rpac and taught him the basics of boxing. We plan to go back regularly, so I can teach him to eventually spar. My roommate isn't the first person I taught, as I used to teach classes whenever the main instructor wasn't able to, but doing it again recently reminded me of how much I love to box, as well as how much fun it is to teach others. It is decently something I plan to do more of in the future.
 Included is a picture of the gloves I gifted him.
