Saving A Penny And Saving Their Day

I’m the customer here. I have to spend my birthday alone and I decide to buy myself some jewelry from a somewhat high end jewelry store. I choose a beautiful ruby and pink sapphire pendant, and while I am getting out my wallet, a pressed penny from an ocean-themed theme park falls out. The saleswoman says she loves pressed pennies, so I give it to her.

I guess she’d had been having a bad day that day, because I got a card several weeks later telling me how her day went so much better after that, and she keeps the penny on her nightstand where she can see it every day.

Just goes to show that a little kindness can go a long way.
