Carl and I had some errands and shopping to do the other day. I have had TERRIBLE road rage for the last few years. I blame it on menopause. So this day I decided I would NOT let road rage control me. For once it actually worked.
So I decided to go a step further. I would smile at every person that looked at me, they ALL smiled back! Okay, I thought what else can I do to pay it forward?
Going toward the hams there was a couple having trouble getting through, he was in a wheelchair. We stopped, moved out of their way and let them through. They thanked us.
Then we were looking at hams and I noticed an older woman with a broken arm trying to get a couple of hams. I helped her with them. Her husband started talking to Carl and I while we were choosing the hams. They were very nice people!
Now to the check out counter. We are behind the couple with the gentleman in a wheelchair. We smiled at each other again. As the clerk started adding our purchases I decided to help her bad our groceries. That's when I noticed the couple in front of us had forgotten a bag of groceries! I brought it to the clerks attention, and another employee was able to get it to them before they got out of the store.
We are now heading to our car, there is the couple that was in line in front of us passing in their car. I could tell she was saying Merry Christmas!! I smiled and said Merry Christmas back to her.
We put our purchases in the trunk and proceded to get in the car. Then I noticed a piece of paper under the wiper on the driver side of the car. I got in and read it out loud: "Just wanted to let you know your right front tire is low." Carl and I both smiled.
I was so happy to know that there are others out there who also decided to "Pay It Forward"!!
