Just went through the drive thru at McDonalds for Rieken...with his food allergies, it always takes a little extra time to order for him. Please add this- remove that...etc.. But Im pretty quick about it, so I thought. I had finished ordering and I glanced in the mirror behind me at a frustrated woman literally throwing her hands in the air, and shaking her head at me... Like, frustrated because I took so long to order. Ok...honestly... My first instinct was to yell out my window at her or um...act as stupid as she did and then... It hit me...thanks to a pay-it-forward post this week by my friend Amy Colclasure Warner...I drove up to the window and calmly told the nice man at the drive thru that I would like to also pay for the car behind me. With the message...I hope she has a better evening. Thanks Amy, for inspiring me to rethink my reaction and turn it into a positive one instead of negative. Also, I think I get double karma points for that one. :)
