One for the Short People



The Prompt: Recall a brief interaction with a stranger this week. What was a small moment of human kindness you witnessed or experienced?

On Tuesday, I saw a woman who is a little taller than I am approach a grocery store employee and ask for assistance with something on the highest shelf. The grocery store employee wasn't taller than the woman, but she climbed up the shelves (!) to get what the woman wanted on the top shelf. The customer was very grateful and the employee, in my opinion, very brave. They need a little ladder for short folks. Or at least a step stool.

Kwizgiver has started a gratitude challenge. I like the idea so I will give it a try. As she states, "The Non-Challenge Gratitude Challenge. This isn't about being perfect. There are no points, no "failing" if you miss a day, and no pressure to perform. It’s just a gentle nudge to look around. I’ll be posting prompts here on the blog, and I’d love for you to join me in the comments--but only if you feel like sharing."

And that's her picture from her blog. I swiped it.

  1. I've had to get employees to reach things for me. I wish I could put things in upper shelves in my cabinets at home, I rue the wasted space.
