…never say never…

 

…I know that one is never suppose to say never; however, never regret anything that put a smile on your face and/or that of another person…

Recently, as I approached the check-out lane hugging my carton of Haagen Dazs Ice Cream with a grapefruit on top, the lady in front of me invited me to go ahead of her since I only had 2 items.  I jokingly said, this was the new grapefruit diet.   She laughingly said she could ”buy” into that.  Then she turned to the checker & requested that he add my 2 items onto her bill.  Turns out we both put smiles on each others faces.

That incident in the grocery store has lit the fire within me to “pass it on”; especially, now as we go from a time of thanksgiving into a time of giving gifts while celebrating the greatest gift of all.   In other words I challenge us all  to keep in mind that the word diet comes from  the  Greek word “diaita” which means “lifestyle” & that henceforth we all strive to rack up more RAKs (random acts of kindness) as an integral ingredient to enhancing our quality of life.

May it be so…
