This morning I paid for the guys coffee behind me in the drive thru, (cheapest order of a strangers that I’ve paid for - $5) This man was SO appreciative hahah he beeped at me twice stuck his head out the window to thank me AND gave me the thumbs up lmao! The greatest and most heart warming gift I feel is to give. The guys reaction over me paying for his $5 coffee order just goes to show what a random act of kindness can do for somebody, no matter how small the deed.
"WOW okay so the most amazing thing just happened to me and I can’t help but share it with the world. American Airlines instituted a new policy where you have to pay to take a carry-on onto the plane. Which is ridiculous but off topic. I consolidate my bags into one and they measure it and say it’s just a little too big. They proceed to charge me $50, except they only take credit card, no cash. Since I just got back from Europe all my cards are being declined as Chase doesn’t know I’m back. They tell me that I’m going to have to miss the flight and head back to the ticket counter to pay down there. I’m pleading, devastated after a long day of travel. Then, this man walks up and says, “How much is it?” They tell him $50 and he says “I got it.” I’m astonished and tell him it’s fine not to worry and he hands the lady his card as the American Airlines employees stand in silence shocked by this man’s generosity. They swipe the card and he tells me to have a great flight and hop on board. I’m crying as I write this and as I board the flight. This man was an angel. I stop him as he’s sitting in first class and try to give him my money but he just shook me off and told me to pay it forward. My heart is so happy. There are good people in this world. Be that person for someone because I know after this I sure will be." Update: It was NFL player, Jermaine Gresham. Credit: Deliliah Cassidy (2018)
