KINDNESS
#supersundaynotes #meet my 2nd eldest sister and #choose kindness with her❤

For the weekend, I came back with my team to my hometown to visit my parents and celebrate my 2nd eldest sister’s birthday.
In the evening, after dinner, I asked my team to give their best wishes to my sister who worked at the market.
One of my team members – Dinh Hiep sent his wishes, coming from his experience with my sister when he visited her store before our dinner started.
He told my sister, “I was touched when a customer came to buy vegetables, your store didn’t have what he wanted but you tried to find a way to help him because you were worried that the customer might not be able to have their ideal meal if they couldn’t buy enough ingredients”.
------The story from Hiep recalled what happened at the market -------------
At that time at 8 pm, everyone at the market had already left, my sister was packing the remainder of the goods into the stall. While my team and I were helping her with packing and cleaning, a customer came and bought mushrooms. After buying them, he asked if we have nodule leaves (usually used to make a dish with pork).
My sister’s store didn’t have that vegetable.
She then suggested I called at my aunt's store next door and see if she had any left. (My aunt had already returned home, and she had covered the goods with canvas and the surrounding ropes). I thought about taking it from my aunt's stall because I didn't want to disappoint the customer. But only for a moment, it didn’t feel right to touch my aunt's stock.
The customer left quickly, after realising that we didn’t have the kind of vegetables – he understood perfectly.
After some minutes, my sister said to me, “Maybe he and his family would miss their favourite meal because of not having that kind of vegetable. Maybe our aunt would also like to sell things and help his family to have his ideal meal.”
---It is beautiful, isn’t it? The thinking of my sister, a simple thought – but beautiful and kind---
We make choices in life, thinking and doing good things for others – no matter how simple.

Thank you, thank you, life for giving us the opportunity to do simple but nice things to others, everywhere we go.

A super week for us ❤️
