Guess I'm getting old!
There's no way of stopping it, but several things have happened in the last few days.
First, after shopping I got up to the register to pay for my purchases and was told that the lady ahead of me gave me her military discount. I did find her in the parking lot and thanked her.
Then yesterday I was in Walmart buying a container of 40 bottles of water. I heard a lady say, "let me help you with that." I was very appreciative because those 40 bottles were quite heavy.
I do appreciate these random acts of kindness but I hate getting old and looking it!
Have you had any random acts of kindness lately .... or not lately?

Which is why many places have one *ask* for a senior discount - instead of just giving a "mature-looking" person the discount.

DH & I were in line at Burger King about 2 months ago & drove up to pay. My DH handed the attendant our money & he told DH that the man in the truck ahead of us paid for our meal. That's the first time that type of random act of kindness has happened to us. It felt so good.
P.S. Our meal was just under $8.
