Random Act of Kindness....
It had been a long work day,
my car isn't working right, my rent is due,
I had to go in to meet the
new management company,
rush hour was setting in, trafic was getting thick
and I was nearly out of gas.
I looked for the best gas price on the way home.
It was about $3.45 per gal everywhere.
And running out of gas
was not going to make my day any better.
So I stopped at the next service station.
I swiped my debit card. But it didn't work.
I tried to cancell the action.
But it kept telling me that it was
"Pre Paid $35.00".
I figured since I already swiped my card
I better follow through.
I pumped the $35.00 and I went in to make it right.
I told the guy the pump number
and said that I don't think it read my card.
I said that I wanted to pay for the gas
and I was afraid of it being charged someone else.
He said the guy before me paid for it,
that it was already taken care of.
Maybe I am slow, I think he recognized that,
he said again that it was taken care of
and my card wasn't effected.
I asked, "So I'm done?"
he replied "Yep, Happy Birthday!"
It wasn't my birthday,
but I was touched by someone's
Random Act of Kindness.
I am grateful for other people who pay it forward,
and I hope to always do the same.
Nice way to end a Friday!!!
