ok - for example...
I once picked up a hitchhiker and was giving him a lift along his way. As we neared my home (a log cabin along the Alaska highway) I realize that it is nearly dark. This hiker has told me along the way that he is hitching back to Alaska due to the fact that he was mugged earlier and robbed of all travel money.
I invited him in to my cabin, fed him, etc. Thought he'd have no luck hitching after dark, so gave him a blanket and the couch for the night. In the morning, I packed up what I could find for a lunch, and slipped in what cash I had in my pocket.
I've thought about this example a fair bit. I lived alone at the time. I had very little extra means. No-one knows about this deed. I have searched my soul and can say that I was concerned for this mans welfare. Not much more to it.
I've stated my motivation, but I'll allow the reader to judge for himself if this is a "good deed".
