Paying It Forward

My wife and I went to get an iced coffee at one of her favorite coffee shops that we hadn't been to in a while. When we got up to the drive thru window to pay, the worker said "You're all set. The car in front of you paid for your coffee." It's nice to know that people are still capable of random acts of kindness! Has anyone been on either end of a similar situation recently??

That is so nice! =) My husband helps people a lot. The other day a guy was paying in pennies so my husband put $5 in his tank and hired him as a helper. We should help each other, this world would be much better if everyone did.

There are a lot of random acts of kindness around. I have not been on either end of one lately but have in the past. Once my kids and I were sitting in the car parked on the street waiting for someone to come down. A guy tapped on the window. I rolled it part way down and he handed me a $20 bill and said to buy those guys some pizza. My kids were pretty chunky and did not look like they were starving. I don't know why he did that but I will always remember him.

That's so cool and definitely random! I bet it probably put a smile on your face.
