When Graciousness Meets Gratitude

--by jumbles15, posted Feb 20, 2012

My friend was in a very long McDonald's drive-thru line and although she had six small children in her car she wasn't in a hurry. So, she let a woman who seemed pressed for time cut in front of her.

When she got up to drive-thru window the McDonald's employee told her that her bill was paid by the person in front of her.

So my friend got seven meals paid for by letting one person go in front of her.

So there you have it, graciousness and gratitude, what wonderful combination!
