Putting a Name to Kindness

Day 167

Almost every day on my way to work I stop at the same place for coffee. Often when the woman at the register sees me walk in the door she will have my order ready (large bold). It makes me feel a little bit like Norm on “Cheers.” We usually chat about the weather or something along those lines. I recently saw her in the shopping plaza near my house and realized that, even though I see her almost every day, I didn't even know her name.

So today I asked. And tomorrow when I get my coffee I will be sure to say “Thank you Chris.”
