Random act of kindness

Wanted to share this with all of you. Went to get some quick lunch. While waiting for my order, a woman was digging through her purse to get enough change to pay for her meal. Apparently she hadn't read the sign on the door that the credit/debit terminals were out of service. The young man that was working the counter offered to pay for her order,even took out his wallet. She did manage to find enough change to cover the meal but it was refreshing to see a teenager that cared about someone other than himself. Kudos to Anthony,hope he goes far in life.

  2. That must have given you a nice smile for the day. My random act of kindness today was meeting a nice elderly gentleman in the grocery store. I don't know why he felt compelled to tell me the story of his wife, but he did. She passed away a year ago. he started to tear up talking about her and how much he misses her. I gave him a big hug. They were married for 40 years, she had a stroke at the age of 29 that left her unable to speak and paralyzed down the right side. He said he wouldn't change one day of their life. Here's to an unknown man who gave me a glimpse of such a wonderful marriage.
