I was the victim of a random act of kindness!

Today my wife and I were finishing up some last minute shopping and stopped to pick up some drive by food at a local place Tops - polish sausage dogs and a large drink and sweet potato fries. When we pulled up the the pay window the attendant informed us that the person ahead of us had paid for our meal! He asked if we knew the elderly lady in an older model car - we did not. That has never happened to me. It felt very nice and kind of restored my faith in humanity a little bit.

I will return the kindness to someone else! Merry Christmas!!

That's so nice

There was this drawing for $10,000.

Like, you get X amount of tickets if you buy so much from a local store, it was called Buy Bixby (the town I live in).

Ryan (my hubby) and I were in the line to get checked out at the local grocery store, and this older man was in front of us and he turned around, and gave us 22 tickets. Didn't say a word.

WOW.

I don't think that it was a coincidence that both Arkans's and Zoe's benefactors were elderly. It seems that many of us oldsters are just a kindlier more generous breed.

But not all of us, thank God!

Why do people say this? WOuldn't it be pay it backward?

BTW this is the second post I have seen today where somebody paid for the person behind them.

You know what I mean <_< , do the same for someone else. It'd be a shame to let it stop there.
