The world needs more Sheryls!!!

OK, so here's the deal...I went to Walgreen's to pick up a prescription and some Zyrtec. I stopped by the 'beauty counter' and saw the cute elderly woman who helped me with some face soap the last time I was in there. She had given me a coupon for the soap and I just thought it was a coupon from Walgreen's. Yesterday, she gave me another coupon for some chap stick that I picked up and then proceeded to dig in a huge box. She reminded me of Mary Poppins...you know, when Mary dives head first into her big bag??? She pulled out a $4 coupon for Zyrtec and said, "I knew I had one in there!!" Then it became quite obvious that she took her coupons very seriously. After asking several questions (I always seem to make friends with cashiers!!), it turns out that Sheryl buys 7 newspapers every weekend and she just clips and clips...and clips coupons - all for the sake of customers/strangers!!! Can you believe it???? She saved me $6 and it was all out of the kindness in her heart. I really got choked up!!!

In our fast-paced world that's filled with much negativity and hatred - it's nice to run into someone like Sheryl!! She was a great reminder that the little things count and they can really make a difference in the lives of the people around you!!

The point of this story: the world needs more Sheryls!!!

Sheryl: You probably won't ever read this (ok, so there's really no way you will ever read this!), but I hope you know that you made a difference in my life today. Your kindness touched my heart and in some small way, I'm sure I am a better person for meeting you!!
