With so much hatred today.......my heart melted yesterday [View all]

Was in line at the post office and the postal clerk said the internet was down so no credit cards were accepted . There was an older lady at the window and a middle aged man filling out international forms but clearly had no cash. The lovely lady bought him an international stamp, walked over to him and handed it to him. He looked at her and then hugged her. It made up for so much pain and sadism that is happening. Just wanted to share this with you folks.
