  • Featured Good Karma Music Story from Michael

    This week’s story is from Michael in Santa Clara, who shares how he approached and invited a coworker to eat lunch together, a gesture that gradually built rapport with his team at work.  “Personally, I’m more of an introvert, so I know how it feels to be with a group of people yet at the same time feel excluded or left out. At work, we usually have team lunches once a week. One time, I went with some of my fellow coworkers but saw someone else standing alone away from the group. I approached them and we chatted over lunch, and they got to know me and my coworkers better.…

  • Featured Good Karma Music Story from Neiya

    This week’s story comes from Neiya in Miami, Florida. When she saw her mother frustrated that all of her grading pens weren’t working, she went to the store and surprised her mom with a new red pen the very next day.  “The other week, my mother was complaining how she wasn’t able to grade tests because not a single one of our red ink pens was working. This is something that really upset her, given how small of a problem it honestly was, so the next day (on International Women’s Day, yep!), as I was on my way to class, I walked past an office supplies store and thought to…

  • Featured Good Karma Music Story from FR

    This week’s story comes from FR in Brazil who volunteered to walk his neighbors’ recovering dog by taking the dog out for walks.  “Just after moving to a new home, my wife and I noticed that the neighbors had a very noisy Labrador Retriever that used to bark and mourn constantly. After some days, we visited them and realized that the dog was recovering from breaking his leg months ago and his owners were afraid of walking him since then (he used to escape from the dog collar, eventually he was hit by a bus). That is why he was so noisy and anxious. So we volunteered to walk him.…

  • Featured Good Karma Music Story from Jun

    Jun from China shares a gift of liberating native fish on their dad’s birthday. “My parents were resistive to freeing captive animals because they are not vegetarian and they think freeing captive animals is a waste of money. On my dad’s birthday, he received many kinds of gifts. I said I would give him a very special gift for his health and a long life by freeing captive animals on this special day. Somehow he finally agreed to buy some native fish with eggs and happily freed them into the river. I could see he really enjoyed the moment of offering freedom to other lives.” Tell us a story of…

  • Featured Good Karma Music Story from Z

    This week’s story is from Z in San Francisco, CA, who made vegan lentil soup for colleagues to enjoy together.  “On a chilly rainy day here, I just felt like cooking lentil vegetable soup for the six of us in an office apartment. They are my former colleagues and their spouses, and still good friends a year after I left the company. It was a simple, wholesome vegan meal, and we sat around a warm table while the Californian rain poured outside. Family-style. I was very happy during the cooking, meal, and clean-up, as old friends came together to ‘break bread together.’ So simple, so good! Thank you for the…

  • Featured Good Karma Music Story: Writing Letters

    This week’s story comes from someone who wrote and sent letters out to loved ones to cheer them up after hearing they were feeling down.  “My best friend and sisters recently told me on separate occasions that they were going through a hard time, whether it be feeling really sad, tired, or upset. I know what it is like to feel blue, so I took out my stationery supplies and wrote them each a letter. I decorated their envelopes and stamped cute stamps onto the paper I wrote on. I included some stickers and wrote words from my heart that empathized with what they were going through, encouraged them, and…

  • Featured Good Karma Music Story from Saffron

    This week’s story is from Saffron in Omaha, Nevada, who sent a sentimental and touching card to bring a smile to someone’s face on their birthday.  “I came across a video on TikTok of a lonely 94-year-old lady residing in a nursing home. It moved me to learn that her birthday falls on Valentine’s Day. I felt inspired to bring a smile to her face by sending her a heartfelt birthday card. It reads: ‘Happy 94th birthday and Happy Valentine’s Day! On this special day, I want to let you know that you are thought of and loved. You have lived a long and full life and I hope this…

  • Featured Good Karma Music Story from Las Vegas

    This week’s story comes from a good samaritan in Las Vegas who gives their possessions to those who are in need.  “I give away what I don’t use to those who are in need. I see a person walking in the pouring rain without an umbrella, I give them mine. I offered my jacket and tent to a homeless person. I cover homeless people sleeping without a blanket in winter with a warm quilt. It’s not the case that I hold onto possessions thinking I might need it later. I give away my own blessings without hesitation.” Tell us a story of your act of kindness and get full albums…

  • Featured Good Karma Music Story from Iris

    This week’s story is from Iris in San Jose, California. She and her family wrote thank-you notes and left tips for the hotel staff who helped make their vacation possible, acknowledging their hard work.  “Our family just came back from our year-end trip. We spent six nights in four hotels during the trip, and were very grateful to hotel staff who still worked very hard during the holiday season. We left tips and hand-written thank you notes in the hotel room when we checked out, . . . in the tipping box of the hotel dining room, and tipped the hotel staff who made breakfast for us. Sharing the earth…
