One day, a ten-year-old boy went
to an ice cream shop, sat at a
table and asked the waitress,
“How much is an ice-cream
cone?” She said,
“seventy-five cents.” The boy
started counting the coins he
had in his
hand. Then he asked how much
a small cup of ice-cream was. The
waitress
impatiently replied,“sixty five
cents.” The boy said, “I will have
the
small ice-cream cup.” He had his
ice-cream, paid the bill and left.
When
the waitress came to pick up the
empty plate, she was touched.
Underneath were ten one-cent
coins as tip. The little boy had
consideration for the waitress
before he ordered his ice-cream.
He
showed sensitivity and caring. He
thought of others before himself.
