Act of kindness a real day-brightener
I experienced something today (Sept. 16) that I feel is seen too rarely in society now - anonymous acts of kindness.
I was in line today at the Joann Fabrics in Town & Country mall in Arlington Heights, waiting to purchase a beginner's quilting set. The woman behind me asked if it was full price. Yes, it was. She offered me her 40 percent off coupon, saying that I could use it better than she could.
Because of a complete stranger, I saved $20! I did not really get to thank her as we both left for the parking lot, but thank you so much! Your kindness brightened my day, and there should be more people like you!
