As I was walking from my car to the store, I noticed a scene that is all too familiar with kids and balloons. One of the balloons always seems to get away. When I walked by, I overheard the mom trying to comfort the little girl who wanted to go up after the balloon. The mom reminded her about the movie Up and those balloons. The Publix employee finished loading up the groceries and hustled the carts back to the store. I was barely into the store, when I saw him heading back out the door with a balloon in hand. I couldn’t help but to smile and tell him “You’re so sweet” as he went out to give the little girl a new yellow balloon to replace the one that got away.
Sometimes I just have to remind people of the good in others.
