maychorian: (when they are gone)
[personal profile] maychorian
Some random lady in McDonald's this morning bought my breakfast, just out of the blue. I just went up to the counter and said, "Two sausage burritos, please," and she hops over from where she was standing waiting for her order and said, "And I'd like to pay for that, please." I kind of gave a shocked, pleased gasp and smiled at her, and she quickly ran her card through the reader and jumped back over to get her food, and then she hurried out the door. I was so flabbergasted that I didn't even say thank you. I hope she could tell that I was grateful, anyway. It was just so sweet and strange and so very, very unexpected.

A random act of kindness? Do I just look that pathetic and beaten-down in general? Whatever it was, it brightened my day immeasurably. I'm kind of getting a little teary just thinking about it. It was a small act, but it meant so much to me.
