During my career as a peace officer, I experienced many positions throughout the department. I was a patrol sergeant for several years and loved it! But one thing that I didn’t enjoy, was trying to eat a meal inside a restaurant. I can’t fit all the reasons in this post within 200 words but I would be happy to tell anyone that asks for the reasons why. But for the multiple reasons, I would either not eat at all or go through a drive-thru at a fast food restaurant and eat in my car.
Well, on one particular night while in the Drive-Thru lane I approached the window to pay for my meal and the cashier told me that the car ahead of me had paid for my meal. I was extremely shocked because no one had ever done that before so I told the cashier that I wanted to pay for the person’s meal that was behind me. So after paying for their meal I attempted to see where the car went that had paid for mine but they had already left the area. It was a very small act of kindness that left a huge impact!
Nice @bluelightbandit!
That's a double random act of kindness!

This one was a small act but huge in it's own right! My whole point was to illustrate that even small efforts can really make a huge impact on another person. The third story that I posted really impacted me personally and also changed the way I done my job. My #3 entry was under 200 words but I'm going to have to write a full blown post about that story because it deserves to be told in full. It was hard to compress it down so much but I was able to. But I'm dying to release the full story, it was a night that I will never forget! Thank you so much for being so kind! I've been told that I'm full of a lot of stuff but one things for sure, I'm definitely full of some exciting and true stories :)!

It is so important to tell your stories...especially this one. It has the potential of helping other people to become "unstuck" from a life of terror and misery and even if one person reads this and decides to make a change, it is so worth it. It isn't often done, (that people can work up the courage to leave a situation that they've always known or think that they can't). Send me a dm if/when you get it written, because I don't want to miss it.

Hmmmm, a "dm"? I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess this stands for "direct message"? I'm ignorant on how to do that, if that's what it means? Sorry... #Noob
