A Glass of Water, Just When I Needed It

--by marianna, posted Sep 14, 2008

Today we hear of so many people who are NOT kind-- let me tell you how I was a recipient of genuine kindness! I was in Sam's Club, a wholesale store, doing my shopping. Each weekend this store has carts in the aisles with food samples and an attendent at each cart. While shopping, I stopped to sample some food, said thank you, and then began hiccupping! I said "excuse me" and continued down the next aisle to shop, hiccupping as I went along. About 5 minutes later, the cart attendent came up to me and gave me a glass of water after hunting me down in the store! I was taken by complete surprise! I thanked the lady profusely and have never forgotten her unexpected kindness!
