I'm a believer that people are naturally good if given the chance to do the right thing.
Today, I was standing in the check out line at woods, and I seen an older man, maybe in his late 30s possibly 40s.The thing that brought my attention to this man, was that he was pushing in a row of carts, but he wasn't wearing anything that told me he worked at woods.
I was so confused, here was an older man, in jeans, a flannel t-shirt, and a denim jacket, pushing carts in for no pay, no profit, no reward. He pushed the row of carts to their place, then pulled one out for himself. He made eye contact with me, and smiled nodding at me, then walked off into the store to do his shopping.
How amazing was it for me to see this man step out of his way to make someone else's job a little bit easier! He asked for nothing, and got nothing, but a smile from me. And he seemed perfectly content with that.
It warms my heart to see someone step out of the norm to do someone a favor. Someone they probably don't even know.
How amazing.
