Something Wonderful Happened to Me Today!

Today I was in the grocery store and saw a very nice lady who gets her shoes where I got my body brace. We really hit it off at the brace store. She's just a lovely person.

I complimented her on the snow flake pin she was wearing. She immediately took it off and gave it to me. When she put it in my hand, I saw what had been hidden against the back drop of her black coat. It has grey pearls on two rows of points of the snowflake and the most beautiful crystals make up the rest of it. When I saw the pearls I told her I couldn't possibly accept a gift like that but she insisted and I put it on, right there in the store.

She couldn't possibly know that I have been wanting something with grey pearls but couldn't afford anything like that. She also didn't know that I absolutely love snow flakes and that my birthday is this month and that the pin will be the only present I will receive.

God, (the HP, the universe or whatever you want to call it), sure does work in mysterious ways!

What a lovely human being!!! I'm so happy to hear about that lovely act of graciousness. Glad to hear about your wonderful day.

There are so many beautiful and kind people in the world. How wonderful you two have met, and what an awesome way for her to share a friendship with you! I love hearing such great stories, thanks so much for sharing.

oh Jan that is so heartwarming! it is good to know that great people still exist in the world!

Thats so awesome Stepford!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How wonderful, I know I would feel just as good giving away the pin. P.S. Happy Birthday!

When the grey clouds gather and a storm blows in...soon the skies clear and the sun shines again.

Last week was your grey skies my friend..and you survived the storm.

This week, the sun is now shining on you and rewarded you with love, warmth and a random act of kindness.....just like you have been more than willing to give to others

Many happy days to you dear (((( Jan ))))

Thank you so very much. My heart feels very full and warm. There are truly great people left out there.

Last week it was really icy on the parking lot. This gentleman was walking carrying groceries and he fell down. I went to help and this younger couple ran over to help. They even offered to walk him all the way home. Wasn't that just wonderful?

It's so good to know that nice people still help other people.



Hugs,

Jan

And do a little chilli pepper dance .......We know a birthday comes but once a year ,,,, But kindness can happen many times over .

Thank you, each and every one!!!!!!

Love and hugs,

Thats a heart warmng story, thank you. Is'nt it amazing? the power of giving, the truth of it being "more blessed" than to receive! I can relate very strongly to her act of selflessness twoard you, It's a joyful thing to put "love" into action. She chose the "pearl of greater value".
