I was debating whether or not to post this because I was'nt looking for fame or anything like that, I just figured maybe this could change how some people think in this world. If I could just touch 1 person with this story, that would be amazing.
Anymore and that is a blessing and the work of God.
So here we go, I went to the Krogers just as I normally do to grab a few things and as I was done I went to the self check out and as I am scanning my items, I noticed an older lady across from me got told she could not have a certain amount of hamburger because it was State Law. That was something I was'nt able to ignore, so I went and told the worker "I would like to buy that" and I did just that, along with my groceries. I did catch up to the older lady as she was heading to her car. I said " excuse me, I seen you in the store trying to buy this hamburger, but you could'nt" and she said, "You did'nt have to do that, are you sure? Do you want money for it"? I said " no its alright". Best part is she gave me a hug right there and as she did that she said something to me that will never leave me, "there needs to be more people like you" and she said she prayed for something good to happen. The only thing I could say is were all in this together and that I hope she stays safe and walked to my car and I sat there with so much emotion, I never experienced something like that.
I believe that this truly was the work of God.
We all can not forget that we are all suffering and hurting from this and some have family that are sick and some lost loved ones, we are all not alone. I pray for those and for you.
Don't forget, the smallest gesture can make someones day in this coronavirus outbreak.
I hope everyone stays safe.
WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS!!!!!!

This definitely not the time for people to be selfish.
I wish more people seen it my way.

The whole corona thing was a total nightmare, but not because of the virus, but because of the reaction to it. It is something I hope we have learned a valuable lesson from, not to overreact, and avoid making the same mistakes we made during that time.
You did a good thing.

@pssionatepanda Well, I am covered in fever blisters in and on my mouth. I did get some medication that I hope will help with that. The doctor says it is caused by stress. So somehow the stress needs to go away.
