my friend shared that she was having a meal at far east one day with another friend. when they asked for the bill, the staff told them that their bill had been taken care of.

according to the staff, an old man goes there often to eat. he then pays for another random table along with his food. and then he simply leaves a card,without a name, asking people to pay it forward.

my friend did of course pick another table.

it's these little stories that warm my heart. and how timely, during this season of giving.

Thank you, dear man, whoever you are and wherever you are. in a world of scrooges and hardened hearts that scrimp and keep wealth to themselves, your little anonymous action has touched my heart. thank you for inspiring.
