An Act of Christmas Kindness


My daughter and son-in-law were in town and got tickets for A Christmas Carol in 2011. 

I wished I had arranged to get a ticket. I work downtown, was working late and met them briefly prior to the show in the ticket area.  

While chatting with them, a man approached us and asked if we needed a ticket because his wife was ill and could not attend. I felt bad and did not have any money to offer him for the ticket. He and his daughter were kind to share their extra ticket with me without any expectation, to make my holiday nicer. 

It was an act of kindness and a demonstration of Christmas spirit.
