My sister partcipated in a pay it foward act [View all]
My sister was standing in a check out line. There were three people in the line, an elderly man with a U.S.M.C. tattoo and cap, a lady, and then my sister. The cashier rang up the man's purchases. He reached for his back pocket got a panicked look on his face and said " I can't find my wallet." The clerk paged customer service for someone to go look for his wallet in case he dropped it in the store. He asked if he could have his groceries set aside for him until it was found. The lady directly behind him pulled thirty dollars out of her purse and told the clerk she'd pay for his.
He said "thank you but I can't accept it" and she said "Yes you can I'd like to think someone would help me if this happened, let me help you." So she paid for his. Then my sister took ten dollars out of her purse and gave it to the lady. She said I'd go halves with you but I don't have any more cash with me. Both the lady and the man and the cashier thanked her.
It proves there are still kind people out there. I am so proud of my sister.
