Reflections:
*On Acts of Kindness:
*I was recently the recipient of an act of "Kindness" that I would like to share with you. It occurred as I was filling my gas cans for my lawn mower. The cans can hold 5 gallons each and this makes them too heavy for me to lift. For this reason I only fill each can half full. When I completed this task I then transferred the nozzle to my truck for the remainder of the gas. This is when a gentleman from the tank opposite me stepped over, secured both caps on the gas cans and placed them on the back of my truck. I then extended my hand, he shook it...I said “Thank You” and his only spoken words during this whole experience was “You’re Welcome”. The small things in life really do matter. #KindnessIsPriceless *Pass It On, GP
