The Japanese have this term “intoku (陰徳)” which roughly translates to good deeds done in secret. What are some examples of intoku in your own life? Doesn’t matter even if it’s something minor like picking up trash.

Last week I pulled a piece of shredded truck tyre off the road.
It was a remote 110km/h road, on a corner down a hill.
I saw a road-train pulled over on the opposite side of the road, and then 30 seconds later we passed the chunk of tyre in the middle of the opposite side of the road.
Pulled the car over, put on my hi-vis vest from the back door, and walked back 300m to pick up the 5kg-1m long tyre chunk and throw it off the road. (Its very still and quiet, you can listen out for any traffic before stepping on the road)
I’ve stopped previously on a remote dirt road to throw a tyre off from a lane, 5 years ago.
It is just something you would not want to see, coming around a corner at speed. They can damage cars, cause people to swerve, etc. Not fun.
