Starbucks this Morning

This morning after dropping my two boy's off at school this morning, I drove to the Starbucks by my house since I had a reward available. Oh how I was wanting a Nonfat Mocha with and extra shot of espresso this morning. The line was very long this morning and the SUV in front of me had window decals and they caught my eye.

As the line moved up, I still kept glancing at the decals on this woman's SUV. The car in front of here took off pretty quick and it was her turn. Then she got her order and I pulled up to the window. I told the cashier that I wanted to use my reward and she said that there was no need, that the car in front of me paid for my coffee this morning. I was speechless and didn't know what to say. I told the cashier thank you and then I drove off. The main goal was to get to the SUV so I could tell them thank you, but they drove off. The next time I go to Starbucks, I plan to pay it forward by giving my reward to the car behind me.

I know that the lady in the SUV will not really know how much it brighten my day, but I hope that she knows that I am very thankful for her kind actions this morning how she made my faith in kindness renew. Thanks!
