Kindness in the Check-Out Line

"When we give cheerfully and accept gratefully, everyone is blessed."
~ Maya Angelou

On a recent evening, I ran into a grocery store to pick up a few items with one of my children.  Thinking that we were only buying a couple of things, I grabbed a basket instead of a cart.  As I approached the check-out line, the basket was heavier than I anticipated.  The woman in front of me in line noticed and invited me to put my basket on her cart.  In a way, it was a small thing, but it was a help for me and immediately created a friendly connection between us.
