Story 6
I used to ignore the old guy at the corner store. Never smiled, always slow. One day, I just said, “Hey, how’s your day?” He lit up like I’d handed him $100.
Turned out his wife had just passed. I was the first person to speak to him that week. After that, we chatted every Sunday.
When he retired, he gave me a little card. It said, “You were the bright spot.” I learned that kindness isn’t always dramatic. Sometimes it’s just showing up.
