@The Cafe

Lighting up someone’s face is the best feeling ever. Even if—especially if— you have to stand in a long line for a cup of cappuccino.

While others tapped their feet and checked their phones, I reached for my portable watercolor kit. Painted a stem of gratitude. Jotted a few words from the heart.

To the team of baristas at Red Rock: Thank you for nurturing our souls with your happiness-induced creations. We love all you do. Keep smiling.”

I handed it over with my order.

The barista beamed. “You made this while waiting? Cool!”

Yes. Cool, indeed. Because that’s what kindness is.
