Yesterday, my wife and I had lunch at our favorite barbecue place. As we were finishing our iced tea, a man who had been sitting alone in the next booth got up to go pay his bill. As he walked by, he stopped at our table, picked up our check and told us to have a good day and proceeded to the register . We were dumbfounded. I followed him to the register to try to dissuade him, but he was insistent.
So, we got a free lunch.
We used to do such things. But it was long ago. My wife and I have renewed our faith in humanity and are embarking on our own personal "pay it forward" campaign.
In this day of vitriol and hate speech, we could use more people like that man.
