P A Y I T F O R W A R D ! ! !
A FAB STORY HAPPENED TO ME last Friday...
I was at the self-ckeckout at the supermarket, I was buying some food, not much...
I put my card in the reader, input my pin and wait a long moment until "" your card was declined... ""
I try again, CARD DECLINED
I ask the staff, he tells me to
"Try again, there is an ISSUE WITH THE SYSTEM today"
I try 2 MORE TIMES,
"CARD DECLINED
CARD DECLINED"
The guy apologises and tell me to take my stuff and follow him, he cancels my purchase and takes me to a cashier: Lottery and alcohol etc...
There is a LONG QUEUE there, he puts me in front of everybody...
CARD DECLINED
I am told to talk to my bank, and I have to give back all what is my bag...
Then it is when the AMAZEMENT sparkles in...
The first lady in the queue, physically disabled and mother of a very young child in a buggy, says to me : It's ON ME !!!
I look at her, SPEECHLESS...
"What do you mean?" I ask
I think : "Do i look so miserable?"
I affirm "I have money on my card... "
I ask her : "Why do you do that?"
TO PAY IT FORWARD, because someone did something like that for me, and I PAY IT FORWARD...
After these few questions, i say THANK YOU and I ACCEPT...
She says THANK YOU for ACCEPTING....
( Next time, Universe, let me know so I can take more food
No I am not shameful, just kidding... )
I say: I won't forget...
She: YOU MUSTN'T...
I will pay it FORWARD
I cannot express how grateful and how good I feel after that, there is hope in humanity,
I LOOK FORWARD TO
PAYING IT FORWARD
