I got to work on Wednesday and one of the surveillance officers was down in our office looking for a Coke. She is a diabetic and when she is starting to feel a little woozy she will drink a Coke rather than the typical orange juice. There was not a Coke to be found. I spoke up and told her that I would run to the Village Pantry next door and grab her a Coke. She quickly said she would be fine and that I didn't have to do that. I insisted that it would be my pleasure to help her out and I would be right back.
While at the VP I felt like I was suppose to buy her a twelve pack in addition to the cold 20oz bottle that I originally went to purchase. When I arrived back at the office, one of the women that I work with, knew of my New Year's resolution and through chuckles exclaimed: "That's not an act of kindness, that's just pure craziness!!"
The woman that I bought the Coke for was deeply touched by my act of going the extra mile. I didn't realize how much impact a twelve pack of Coke could make!! I told my husband it was the best $6.80 that I had spent in a long time. This summer our church had several weeks of Conspiracy Of Kindness Events (acts of service) and because of my work schedule I was not able to participate. This week I finally had my turn . . . because of some . . . C.O.K.E.!!!
This week . . . LIVE BOLD!!
Awesome!
