We All Need To Lean On Something Or Someone At Times

By beth • December 20, 2018

After posting my pay-it-forward story from Trader Joe's, my friend sent me this.

I was in Trader Joe's yesterday hobbling around with a cane (having just had some surgery on my leg) and ended up with too much stuff in my little hand carry basket. I was really struggling.

A woman came up to me who had a wheeled cart and said, "I have a lot less then you - let's swap."

She proceeded to load all of my stuff into the cart and her stuff into my little hand basket. Then said, "you can lean on this easier too. We all need to lean on something or someone at times." And walked off.

Amazing.

Happy Holidays indeed!
