Just a little heartwarming story for you!
I've been involved in a few "Pay-it-Forward" lines at Starbucks or McD's before, but those little feel-good moments pale in comparison to what I witnessed today. The wifey and I had lunch together at Red Lobster since she got home early from work. Seated next to us was a family from Porter. At one point their server comes over and shows them a receipt with a note on it. A lady sitting on the other side of them had just purchased their entire meal. They were speechless, as I imagine anyone would be, and tears were beginning to flow. The emotion that covered them carried over onto our table and had touched our hearts as well. I asked them if I could share the story with others and they agreed. The waitress told us that the kindhearted woman who'd paid for their lunch, asked her to not say anything until she was gone. She also inquired about leaving them a note. She did not know them nor did she talk to them, but she did manage to touch their lives(and ours) as if they'd been friends forever.
I wish I could've thanked her...I never even noticed her sitting there. You'd think it would be easy to spot someone with a halo and wings.
