Replying to Be thankful

Little story for you guys

So my dad and I were just at our city Civic Center, to put some utlities in our name or something, I'm not really sure. But anyways, as we walked in, I saw this guy talking to two of the ladies at the front desk. He had a long beard, and just looked like he was having a really hard time of it.

As we walked up to the desk, we heard the lady who was working with him tell him that she was going to have to shut up his electricity. He started to tear up a bit, and we heard him say that he didn't have the forty dollars that he needed. She sighed a little, then told him, look, if you have 20 dollars, I can keep it on until November.

He looked down at the ground, then looked up and quietly told her that he didn't have any money to give her. He told her that he hadn't eaten in two days. At this point, my dad walked up and offered to pay the forty dollars. The man looked at him with a face that I will never forget. All he said was 'Thank you'.

After that, we drove home mostly in silence. Not really sure why Im sharing this with you guys, guess that I just wanted to say to always be thankful, because seeing someone that like sure made me appreciate all of the things that I take for granted.

Thats all Ive got for today, peace NS
