shy-baby: positive-memes: Wholesome strangers I moved to Texas earlier this year. I moved away from a VERY toxic/abusive environment and was still getting myself together at the time. I went to Walmart with my boyfriend to pick up some things for my new apartment. While we were shopping, I saw this print of a cow on canvas. I am excited by little things like this, and told my boyfriend “I NEED THIS ADORABLE COW,” loud enough for an older lady nearby to hear. She had been listening to our conversation and asked if I was from Texas, and I said no, to which she responded “then you need that cow painting!” After a few more moments of debating, I decided to focus on spending my money on things I needed (I was pretty poor after moving) and moved on. About 10 minutes later, a Walmart cashier approached me holding the cow painting, and explained that the lady had bought it for me. I immediately broke down crying. I tried to find her, but she had gone. I had never experienced such kindness from a stranger, who had no idea what I was going through at the time. This painting is hanging in my kitchen now, and every time I see it, the world seems a little brighter. -- source link
