Stories of Kindness from Around the World

🍯 That Much Sweeter


--by mindyjourney, posted Dec 4, 2022

“Would you like a bag?” the cashier asked, stacking the 4 baklava boxes that held 2 pieces each of that deliciously rich walnut/honey/phyllo dessert per container.

“No, we’re just going to give them over there,” I motioned with my head to the table of Air Force servicemen and women, enjoying their lunch of gyros platters.

She thought for a moment and offered, in her mediterranean accent, “Let me give you another, just for you! No charge.”

Her generosity was an unexpected kindness that made our random act of appreciation that much sweeter.

❤️ Found a dime in the parking lot and MisterM found a penny on the way back to the car. Love those thumbs-up from the Universe!
