This story was shared to me by my friend and I wan't to this on blog because I want also that some of my can read and think about it.
A
Return is Requested....You'll see
why.
Breakfast
at McDonald's
This
is a good story and is true, please read it all
the way through until the end! (After the story,
there are some very interesting
facts!):
I
am a mother of three (ages 14, 12, 3) and have
recently completed my college
degree.
The
last class I had to take was
Sociology.
The
teacher was absolutely inspiring with the
qualities that I wish every human being had been
graced with.
Her
last project of the term was called,
'Smile.'
The
class was asked to go out and smile at three
people and document their
reactions.
I
am a very friendly person and always smile at
everyone and say hello anyway. So, I thought
this would be a piece of
cake,
literally.
Soon
after we were assigned the project, my husband,
youngest son, and I went out to McDonald's one
crisp March morning.
It
was just our way of sharing special playtime
with our son.
We
were standing in line, waiting to be served,
when all of a sudden everyone around us began to
back away, and then
even
my husband did.
I
did not move an inch... an overwhelming feeling
of panic welled up inside of me as I turned to
see why they had moved.
As
I turned around I smelled a horrible 'dirty
body' smell, and there standing behind me were
two poor homeless men.
As
I looked down at the short gentleman, close to
me, he was 'smiling'
His
beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God's Light
as he searched for
acceptance.
He
said, 'Good day' as he counted the few coins he
had been clutching.
The
second man fumbled with his hands as he stood
behind his friend. I realized the second man was
mentally challenged and the blue-eyed gentleman
was his salvation.
I
held my tears as I stood there with
them.
The
young lady at the counter asked him what they
wanted.
He
said, 'Coffee is all Miss' because that was all
they could afford. (If they wanted to sit in the
restaurant and warm up, they had to buy
something. He just wanted to be
warm).
Then
I really felt it - the compulsion was so great I
almost reached out and embraced the little man
with the blue eyes.
That
is when I noticed all eyes in the
restaurant were set on me,
judging
my
every action.
I
smiled and asked the young lady behind the
counter to give me two more breakfast meals on a
separate tray.
I
then walked around the corner to the table that
the men had chosen as a resting spot. I put the
tray on the table and laid my hand on the
blue-eyed gentleman's cold
hand.
He
looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and
said, 'Thank you.'
I
leaned over, began to pat his hand and said, 'I
did not do this for you. God is here working
through me to give you hope.'
I
started to cry as I walked away to join my
husband and son. When I sat down my husband
smiled at me and said, 'That is why God gave you
to me, Honey, to give me
hope..'
We
held hands for a moment and at that time, we
knew that only because of the Grace that we had
been given were we able to give.
We
are not church goers, but we are
believers.
That
day showed me the pure Light of God's sweet
love.
I
returned to college, on the last evening of
class, with this story in
hand.
I
turned in 'my project' and the instructor read
it.
Then
she looked up at me and said, 'Can I share
this?'
I
slowly nodded as she got the attention of the
class.
She
began to read and that is when I knew that we as
human beings and being part of God share this
need to heal people and to be
healed.
In
my own way I had touched the people at
McDonald's, my son,the instructor, and every
soul that shared the classroom on the last night
I spent as a college student.
I
graduated with one of the biggest lessons I
would ever learn:
UNCONDITIONAL
ACCEPTANCE.
Much
love and compassion is sent to each and every
person who may read this and learn how to
LOVE
PEOPLE AND USE THINGS -
NOT LOVE THINGS
AND USE PEOPLE.
There
is an Angel sent to watch over
you.
In
order for her to work, you must pass this on to
the people you want watched
over.
