Kindness, Pizza and a Police Officer

"No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted."
~ Aesop

On a recent hot Saturday afternoon,  a neighborhood police officer took a step back as he was about to enter a pizzeria to hold the door open for a woman who was walking out with a pizza box and two bags.  The police officer smiled, and the woman smiled back and thanked him.  The officer could not have known that the woman was tired and that her heart was weary after a rough week.  But his small act of kindness lifted the woman's spirits and her smile back at him lingered as she walked to her car.
