Passing it on

[Tiramisu]

Last night, hubby and I were checking out at the grocery store ($338), with one lady in line behind us. That lady let a young man in front of her because he only had a pack on hamburger buns, so I asked the clerk to scan the man's item to my bill so he could go. He offered to pay me, but I told him I'd rather him remember and do a kind deed for someone else - PASS IT ON.

The clerk was flipping out. She said in her many years of working there, she had never seen anybody do something like that. Of course, I looked at the lady behind me and told her not to even think about it! We had a good laugh. My hubby was very proud of me, but he's used to me doing stuff like that.

I'm bragging on myself, but it made me feel good to have the opportunity and be able to do something simply with goodwill for somebody.

Well done Sandy, I too love doing things like that. The look on the persons face is well worth the price of the item.

Not many people are that kind anymore.

I must admit, I haven't done that, don't remember if there has ever been the opportunity. My favorite good thing to do is ask an elderly person sitting alone at a restaurant to sit with us. I hate to see someone sitting all alone.

Well done, Sandy!! This world definitely needs more just like you!!!

I've never thought about that Janet, I always feel bad when I see an older person eating alone - I don't know why I haven't thought to invite them to our table - next time I will!
