Giving A Smile Card Made Me Smile!

--by DriftOff2Dream, posted May 6, 2012

After a morning of disapointment my husband and I decided to go out to eat a late lunch/early dinner.

By the afternoon the morning's problems had me in tears so it was MUCH needed. We didn't talk much during our meal, but eventually we perked up a little.

After we were done and the waitress brought our check I included a Smile card in the tip. I watched her walk to her station reading the card. She then showed the card to three or four co-workers. A few minutes later I heard one of the co-workers say, "That was an act of kindness. Now you have to pass it on."

They seemed to really get into the spirit!

I have to confess that putting the card into the tip was not just to spread kindness but to make me feel a little better too. And, guess what! It worked both ways!
