The Gentleman

Ashleigh and I stopped at the grocery store after school. We were standing in line when a gentleman pushed his cart in line behind us. I don't use the word gentleman lightly either. After standing there for a couple min an elderly woman pushed her shopping cart behind him in line, noticing that she only had a few items (and this was the only line open) he told her to go ahead of him. She had a pleasant but shocked look on her face and asked him, "are you sure" which he replied with, "of course, you only have a few items". I haven't witnessed that in years and made me smile to think that some people still value those random acts of goodness.
