Thanks to stranger for her kindness

I had an experience Saturday morning. It was called kindness. A woman in a black, Saturn SUV bought my Venti, double shot, almond mocha latte at the coffee shop.

When I went outside to see what friend was buying my drink, I discovered it was a total stranger. When I asked why she was buying my coffee, she responded by saying, "I just wanted to pay it forward this morning."

I gave the woman a hug and went back inside smiling. While I know nothing of this person other than she is kind, giving and thoughtful, it was enough to rekindle my belief that people are inherently good.

Thank you for your kindness and here's to paying it forward.
