The Clock That Counted Kindness

A peculiar clock in a small bakery only ticked when someone performed an act of kindness.

Some days it spun rapidly, others it froze for hours.

One winter night, when a blizzard trapped the entire town inside their homes, the clock chimed twelve times in the darkness.

No one could explain it.

But the next morning, the streets were full of footprints leading from house to house—quiet acts of unseen generosity.
