Paying it forward every week!

--by hasifa, posted Aug 15, 2011

My latest week of paying it forward -

Monday

I paid for the coffee of the person behind me on my way to work.

Tuesday

I was driving to work and accidently cut somebody off. When we came to the stop light I rolled down my window and apologized to the driver.

Wednesday

I was driving out of the parking lot and a young woman, who was obviously not paying attention, backed into my car. It turns out she had no insurance and was really worried about the big ticket and the damages to my car. I assessed the damage to car and decided I could fix it myself without getting the police involved. She was a college student and, since I just graduated from college only four months ago, I do understand that money is very hard to come by. I told her to be more careful next time and left.

Thursday

I invited my new neighbor over for pizza.

Friday

I tipped the guys that washed my car at the car wash.

Saturday

I invited a friend along for my workout.

Sunday

I went to my parents’ house to spend some time with them.
