“Every day, some act of kindness comes my
way, even if it’s just someone opening the door. It happens every day if you keep an eye out for
it. Keeping an eye out that’s the key.”
~ Aaron Neville
Every so
often, I volunteer in the early morning at the library at one of my children’s
school. On a recent morning, I was in an
especially big hurry and did not manage to grab something to eat before heading
for the library. A little while into my
shift, the librarian asked me if I wanted coffee. I said no, but I asked her if she knew at
what time they put out the snacks for the children and explained that I had not
eaten anything that morning. A few
minutes later, the librarian came over to where I was shelving books and very
quietly told me to go to her office where she had a croissant, a yogurt and
another small snack waiting for me. I
was incredibly touched by her kindness.
