In Line For Hope For Humanity

(I am in line with my 10-month-old son, who is behaving himself wonderfully. We are playing games in line while the couple in front of me were chatting with the cashier. My turn comes next and I watch the other couple hurry away.)

Cashier: “Here.”

(She then hands me some money.)

Cashier: “The couple in front wanted you to have this.”

Me: “Wow, thanks.”

Cashier: “Wait, you didn’t know them?”

Me: “No. Never met them before in my life.”

Customer Behind Me: “Wish that would happen to me! It’s people like that that make me hopeful for the world, though.”

(By the time I ran out to find them they were gone. Thank you, random couple!)
