| One girl lovingly packed a snack box for a friend's trek back to
college. Taking the time to put the friend's favorite goodies in to
make sure she had plenty to eat on her flight, she carefully prepared
the bag.
The girl traveling home was again suprised by another friend as she
stepped up to the ticket counter in the airport. Having driven through
the night, an exhausted friend also offered the girl a snack pack for her long journey
ahead.
As the girl settled down in her seat she noticed the passengers
surrounding her. She soon realized the seven children dispersed
throughout the cabin were travelling home to New Orleans with literally
nothing. The girl looked in her bag and realized how blessed she was to
have so much. She found herself giving away her magazines, a couple of
cds, all the snacks her friends had packed and the little money she had
so the group of children might get something to eat during their next
layover.
She smiled to herself as she walked off the ramp not even realizing she
had just given away the money that was meant to feed her for the next
couple of days. Just then a booming voice called her name and she
looked up to see her soccer coach of eight years whom she had lost
contact with. They embraced and chatted for a brief time and then
hurried off
to different gates. Before they departed as the two hugged one last
time her old coach placed a twenty in her sweatshirt pocket, knowing
nothing of what the girl had done.
.....pay it forward
