A missed opportunity! Mar 26, 2008 12:37 am
Mood: Missed opportunity, 320 Views
I was in the supermarket the other day and I was standing at the check-out with my son. There were 2 people ahead of me and I watched the check-out-operator place a bottle of cream and a loaf of bread next to the till.

At first I thought nothing of it until the lady in front of me said to a little girl, "Do you want the bottle of cream?" The little girl replied, "Yesss." The lady added the cream to her grocery list and gave the little girl the bottle of cream.

I saw that the bread was still sitting there and I wanted to say, "I could buy the bread." But I never said a thing. I was touched by this woman's kindness and disappointed that I didn't pay for the bread.

A missed opportunity!

I could have been the hand of God to this little girl but I said and did nothing. I'm wondering how many opportunities I've missed.
