Random acts of kindness…
In the midst of what was clearly a business call on his cell, a businessman stopped in front of the door to the cafe, to focus on his conversation.
As I approached, he noticed, opened the door, held it open, and stepped aside to let me in. Still deep in conversation. I whispered “thank you” as I passed.
It was a small thing for him to do. But huge, too, since not everyone holds doors open or realizes (or cares) about blocking traffic when they’ve stopped in a doorway. This is true especially when folks are speaking on cell phones.
Turns out there’s a whole foundation dedicated to random acts of kindness.
A good reminder that in our personal and business lives, small things are noticed. And do truly matter.
