Random Acts of Kindness
By admin | May 10, 2009
I saw this story at http://blog2inspire.strutta.com/entries#4183
and I have to post it here as well. If we all did things like that
the world would be a better place!
“Many years ago, I was helping my daughter sell Girl Scout cookies outside the Kroger store when a slender, well dressed man approached us with a task. He paid for six boxes of cookies but only took three. He asked the girls to find three people who looked like they were having a bad day and tell them, “Someone wants you to have these cookies.”
The girls spent the next several hours observing every Kroger shopper. Thirty minutes after giving a box to one woman, she returned with money to pay for someone else’s cookies and a story about how awful her day had been before meeting the scouts who lifted her spirits.
This pattern of buying and giving away cookies continued throughout the weekend and has become a practice of the troop. Now that these girls are grown-ups, they still remember the man in the suit and continue to perform random acts of kindness when possible.”
