For my random act of kindness, I decided to let a friend use one of my swipes at Scotts Traditions. I have the unlimited meal plan and he had the 12 swipes meal plan. He only had 1 swipe left for the week so I thought he would benefit from this. Seeing his reaction made me feel really good about what I did. It was something simple but also something that could have saved him finacially in the long run. I chose to do this because a lot of my friends have the certain amount swipes plan and I always hear them talking about the amount they have and rather or not they should use one at a particular place. It is something they have to be conscious about, whereas I just swipe and go. What I took away from this assignment is that you never know what someone is going through and how you can affect their day both positively or negatively. Kindness is contagious and if we can continue spread that around, our society can be a better place.
That's a generous thing to do as long as you don't hold that over his head and say he owes you a meal later! haha. But good on you for helping a friend, I'm sure he will take that and hopefully pass it on to someone else. I'll leave with a quote that has stuck with me since high school...
