Lesson 3 of Five (5) lessons to make you think about the way we treat people

 3 – Third Important Lesson – Always remember those who serve.  In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10-year-old boy  entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass  of water in front of him.  “How much is an ice cream sundae?” he asked.  “Fifty cents,” replied the waitress.  The little boy pulled is hand out of his pocket and studied the coins  in it.  “Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?” he inquired.  By now more people were waiting for a table and the waitress was  growing impatient.  “Thirty-five cents,” she brusquely replied.  The little boy again counted his coins.  “I’ll have the plain ice cream,” he said.  The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and  walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and  left. When the waitress came back, she began to cry as she wiped down  the table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nickels and five pennies..  You see, he couldn’t have the sundae, because he had to have enough  left to leave her a tip.When is the last time you done something worthy of mentioning for others!

Thank about it!
