Made a early outing, shopping for groceries, I also picked up a cute top. It cost $18.00 and I had just enough to buy it.
An very elderly lady was in line in from of me, she had bought just a few things, and was trying to count her change, she started crying and said, "I'm so sorry"
I told her, "Don't be sorry, you are the most important person in this line right now"
She didn't have enough money , she lacked about a dollar and was going to put her food back, NO, I have been hungry before and know what it's like.
I bent down and snuck a 5 out of my money, touched her on the shoulder and said, "Ma'am, you dropped this." She was crying even more and I almost cried myself. But she took the bill and smiled and said ,"Thank you" with such dignity.
Then I had to ask the teller to check my top for price, I asked the teller if I could put back the top, as I had changed my mind.
All those idiots behind me in line who were making comments like they did should be ashamed and I hope that I shamed them. Two of the people right behind me saw what I did and then they had no more bad things to say.
A RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS- LET'S PASS IT ON.
It could be just a smile, holding a door for someone, or just saying Hi to someone.
