I was in line checking out at the craft store and started chatting with the girl behind me in line with her adorable baby. She noticed I was buying some macrame cord and mentioned she had come in looking for the same thing but I must have gotten the last two reams of the color she wanted. I handed her one and told her to take it, I could come back and get more another day. That’s it, nothing huge!
The girl behind me in line was, of course, Erica. The funny thing was, she hadn’t been wearing the compass bracelet when we met at the craft store. The next week I got a call from my friend who was with me at the craft store that day. She said she went to the local farmers market and started talking to a girl selling macrame and the girl started telling her about someone giving her a ream of cord in line at the craft store. They connected the dots and Erica gave her the compass bracelet to give to me!
I thought it was especially cool how the universe made that connection happen.
I cant wait to pass along 3289 to the next person. What a sweet idea and a reminder of how sometimes even small kindnesses can mean a lot to others.
