Unexpected generosity

On Friday night I experienced true kindness from a total stranger.

Editor, The Record:

On Friday night I experienced true kindness from a total stranger.

While I was at the till at Safeway I realized that I had grabbed a wrong item, and told the cashier I would be right back, and to ring in the man behind me. When I got back the cashier, she told me this man had paid for my items, over $11 in total.

I was in shock, not because I don’t believe in kindness but I’ve never experienced something like this first-hand.

I do not know this man, and have never seen him before, yet he opened his wallet and gave unselfishly to help me.

Whoever you are, I would like to say thank you, and I want to assure you that I will pay this good deed forward!
