Gifted Latte, Anyone

--by cyctw, posted Oct 25, 2015

A friend was made a vanilla latte by mistake at Starbucks. Rather than throw it away, they let her keep it, but she didn't want it, so she offered it to me.

I already had my drink, plus I don't like the sweet stuff, but I took it anyway and said I'd try to find the drink a home. I offered it to several people in line, but none wanted it.

So, I went outside. A young lady was walking toward the entrance and I asked her what she was going to order. She said a latte. I asked if she'd like a venti vanilla late and she was delighted to take it.

I didn't think much of it at the time, but I am so grateful that she was trusting of me, of the universe, in that one moment. Her accepting of the drink was as much a gift to me as the drink was to her...maybe even more <3
