Small Acts, Big Impact
The other day I was having lunch with my dad. He had come up to see my husband and I for lunch.
We were in the cafe at work and my friend Ruth walked up. I introduced them and she began telling him what a great daughter he had raised. She spoke so kindly of me, and that too, with example -- she told him how I had given her a ride to work when her car broke down and how my husband got her keys out when she locked them in her car. I honestly started to get embarrassed.
We have only known each other for a few months, and it was amazing to me how things that were a small thing to do for someone meant so much to her.
That kind of gratitude is a dwindling trait in our society. It meant a lot knowing that someone appreciates kindness so much. She truly brightened my day ,and to be frank, it is probably something I will always remember.
