I’m a cashier at a local wal-mart, while ringing up a woman today she casually mentioned to me it was her birthday. I wished her happy birthday and continued to chat with her while I finished ringing her up when I and gave her the total which was over $70. A young lady who was behind her who had engaged in small talk with us calmly grabbed her hand as she attempted to hand me her cash. She said, since it’s ur birthday I’d like to pay for your bill. The woman and I were both in shock as she slide her debit card throu the reader. The woman begin to repeatedly say thank you and how shocked she was and what a blessing that this young lady was being. To which she said my name is Chelsea and I’m doing this random act of kindness for our Emma… as she began to explain what exactly that meant I was brought to tears. Emma, I will never forget witnessing this random act of kindness. You must have been such a special girl to have had this kind of influence on people and now I will never forget you and will do a random act of kindness in ur name as well.
Birthday blessing
