A Kid Walked Up To Me In The Store

By Ian • April 24, 2015

I was carrying two jugs of cat litter; I had a carton of eggs between my arm and side.

Behind me, I heard a kid say, "Excuse me?" I turned and saw he was carrying a basket. "Would you like this? I saw you had all that stuff and thought maybe you could use it."

I took the basket and told him, "Keep being nice, man. World needs more nice people like you." He couldn't have been more than 8 years old.

Made my day.
