graciousness


Even though I was at Target by 11, the lines were insane.  I had one little item and the woman in front of me insisted that I go ahead of her.  As I paid, I thanked her again and she said that it was her delight to offer that as her Christmas gift to me.  

What a gracious thing for us to offer each other~a bit of pause in the seasonal insanity.  To pay attention to the human in front of us.

    1. Too bad the gracious isn't spilling over onto the roads~each day seems to get more vicious on the commute.
