I was making spaghetti for company and Discovered I was missing an ingredient, A green pepper. I drove to a nearby store and Dashed in to pick one up. However, I couldn't buy just one. There were two in every package. I grabbed the double pack and Carried it to the check out. The lady in front of me was unloading her Groceries, and I found myself asking her, "Would you like a pepper? I don't need Two of them." "Thank you," she said. "My boys would Love it. How kind of you!" As I removed the plastic wrap and Handed the knobby veggie to the mom, She thanked me again. "You've blessed my day." "And you're my divine appointment," I Replied. We walked out of the store together Chatting about the fact that she has Five sons in her family just as I had five Brothers growing up. We parted ways with a smile. I learned a simple lesson: A greep pepper makes good Spaghetti sauce, but giving one away Makes for good will. |
