Pay It Forward

Went to Albertson's after work yesterday to pick up a few things. Got to the express lane with my basket of stuff and started emptying it on the belt. I noticed a guy behind me with a bag of parsley or some type of herb. I asked him if he wanted to step in front of me. He smiled, nodded and thanked me.

He finished paying for his bag of herbs and turned around said thanks again and gave me a card for a free meal at Pollo Tropical! Turned out he was a manager at the newly opened franchise. Cool Beans!

It was a nice reminder that being nice normally doesn't cost anything but a few seconds of your time and also inspires others to be kind in return....maybe not to you, but to someone they stumble across.

Keep the happiness level of the world at maximum capacity people!
