Commit random acts of kindness

I saw a bumper sticker with those word years ago and they stuck with me. Sometimes I try of slip in a random act of kindness when I see an opportunity. I must tell you this little story, then I will go watch the Olympics.

I went into a Chinese noodle restaurant the other day, alone. It was full, so I waited to sit at the bar. I was the only person of my race sitting there, and the ones right next to me did not have a handle on English. They kept trying to order and the bar tender kept asking for the menu number and they kept not getting it. It was a little amusing to me, then an African American woman sat down and I started a conversation. She was there alone too. I told her the next day was my birthday. She was very good at English. We had a pleasant chat. I put my debit card out to pay my tab, and she handed it back to me. She wanted to buy my dinner as an early birthday wish. I almost burst into tears. Random act of kindness!

Think about starting some of your own! They have a way of playing on. Bye.
