A Pay-it-Forward Breakfast Treat

--by pmcc, posted Aug 28, 2010

We were out to breakfast one morning and when we went to pay our bill, our waitress said that the man across the isle had paid it!! Wow!!

We talked with him and asked him why he paid our bill. He said he was feeling a little low and whenever he felt like that, he'd try to do something nice for someone else! What a great pick-me up!

Well, we have paid it forward. We go out to breakfast fairly often and when the timing is right and when we feel moved, we pay someone else's bill. People are amazed and thankful.

We usually say to them, just pay it forward.
