The Kindness Of Strangers

Yesterday, I went to the closest Shoppers' Drugmart to get Diet Pepsi 6 packs. On my way in, I was approaching the automatic door, and a woman in her 20s stopped short of the door, smiled and said, go ahead. I was taken aback, because it's usually me letting others go first. Initially, I was a bit embarrassed, but, I was in a lot of pain, limping with my cast on, so I smiled, and said thank you. I grabbed a cart, got my pop, went to my car, and was pushing the cart back to the store, when the girl came running over to me, waving her arm, smiling, and said, I'll take it back for you. Wow. I told her I appreciated it, and that she was very kind. Who does that? Well, TBH, I do, but, I don't expect it from others. It put a smile in my heart. So, thank you, stranger, for you thoughtfulness, and kindness.
