Human Kindness Is Overflowing
Here’s the thing. You don’t really want to know how it went at school, because I would get pissed thinking about it, but…
I came home pretty early and went to the post office to get my package from Canada (yay! Alias!) and there was this guy with his little daughter (the daughter really is just a part of the description here and has nothing to do with the actual story) and obviously he wanted to fill out a form for some money transaction and was in urgent need of a pen. You would think that a post office with an integrated bank counter would have enough pens flying around for customers to fill out forms, but I know now that they don’t. Anyway, I offered him my pen to fill out his form, so here’s my good deed for today. I don’t consider it so much a good deed but just the abilitiy for a sensitive observation of what people around you are doing and being nice enough in the right situation. Whatever.
So, after that I went to the supermarket to get a little something to eat and I just had two things when I stood in line and the woman whose turn it was next noticed that I only had very little and let me pay first. I just thought ‚Well, being just nice from time to time really pays off.‘ It so seemed like cause and effect that I really don’t want to label it as common coincidence.
So, I’m in a pretty good mood, because I was nice to someone and in return someone was nice to me. Way to start a day (only my day didn’t actually start then).
And I can’t open my package now, because Andreas told me there is a spoiler right on the box’s cover and now I’m scared and have to watch the last four episodes of season 1 before I can even take a look at my newly arrived Alias-DVDs. Great. Thanks a lot, Andreas.
