Spirit of Christmas

Around noon on Dec. 20 I went shopping at the Fountain Hills Safeway. There were so many good bargains, and I needed everything and got carried away.

I was short $22 at the register, and when I started to take off some items, the lovely lady behind me said wait, I’ll take care of her bill.

I turned around to thank her. I asked her her name, and she just hugged me and wished me a Merry Christmas.

What a great experience it was to know there is still goodness in people, it restores your faith in people.

She brought the Christmas spirit into my heart and I promise to help someone else in need.
