Random question

A bride friend I have did something super sweet for another bride who really needed something good to happen, she called it her pay it forward moment....I love hearing stories like this bc they inspire me to be a better person :) and that there are still good people out there!

So my question is, have you ever had, or witnessed a 'pay it forward' moment? Have you, yourself gone out of your way to make someone smile?

Tell me about it!

Re: Random question

a few months ago, there was a woman in the elevator with about 6 - 10 folded-up boxes (so they were flat). She was having a hard time carrying them all so i took half of them and walked her all the way down to her car. even with two of us, it was annoying to carry them all - i don't think she would've made it solo

Re: Random question

iI actually posted a while ago a pay it forward. I ran into a pizzeria on lunch but had to get back to work and didnt realize there was 15 mim charge for credit and had no cash and some man told me not to worry about it he paid and told me to do something nice for someone else which was so nice. later that day I was at the supermarket and this little old lady was counting change on her one bag of groceries but didnt have enough so I paid the rest of it which was almost same amount that the man paid for my lunch.

Re: Random question

This happened to my friend...

She works in the city and was getting dinner one night after work with a friend. As they were finishing up 2 men (probably in their 40's) offered to pay the bill out of nowhere (And NO they were not trying to hit on them)

One of the men said that when he was in his 20's someone had done the same for him. He asked for nothing in return but 'When you get older, pay it forward to some else'

So sweet!
