A nice story I saw on Facebook

Waiting in line to pay for groceries while maintaining a 6ft distance, this man cut in line.

He didn't appear to notice what he’d done. The person he skipped didn't say anything, just maintained the proper distance.

When it was time for the man to pay he reached in his back pocket and pulled out a small note pad.

He’d forgotten his wallet.

He looked a bit disappointed and embarrassed. The person he skipped stepped up and told the cashier they’d take care of his groceries. (Which only consisted of milk and cookies.)

He was more than grateful. He kindly thanked them and off the man went. Upon arrival to the register, the cashier asked: "He cut you off and you paid for his groceries.. Why??"

They calmly replied with a smile:

“I hope that if one day my Dad forgets his wallet, someone will step up and buy his milk and cookies.”

Kindness is a beautiful thing.
