All the best intentions were made yesterday...

I come in here daily, although I may not post that often right now, I do have moments that I want to write about.  Ones that really touch my soul.

Then yesterday happened.  I lied.

Here's what happened.  

I felt the need for a fresh coffee from our local Tim Horton's.  I went to a group of friends at work to take their order.  They kept saying no but with some convincing, I got a few orders. How?

I lied.  

I told them I had a bunch of free coffees to use up and it was my treat.  (while my fingers were crossed behind my back).

I drove over, ordered and returned while putting the coffees on their desks, laughter and smiles came from  it.  That made my afternoon.  After all, yesterday was International day of Happiness.  

I returned to my desk and to work.  Quietly humming away while filing another friend at work came up to me and looked at my funny.  I had to ask if something was on my face.  He said... mm... 

"No but you like Tim Horton's right?"

I responded honestly. 

"I sure do." 

He then handed me 3 free coffee tabs and walked away.

I agree.  It's not good to lie.  I'm not telling you that you'll get a reward for lying.  

What I am telling you is that sometimes, not always, good things come from good intentions.  
Don't give up on being kind.  
Don't stop paying it forward.  
Don't stop believing in the good.
