Honestly I lost hope a long time ago, but back when I was a waitress (about 5 years ago) I met so many amazing people! I have a lot of things, I'll try to narrow It down though. These might be stupid for others, but they definitely gave me a different view. *beware of spoiler* [spoiler]I remember one time, these military guys came in for lunch, a girl came up and asked if she could pay for their meal, I said sure. She told me her dad passed and when she sees someone in there uniform it reminds them of him. She asked me to keep it anonymous and I promised I would. When they came up to pay, the look on their face was amazing. There was another time when these two girls (sister's) came to eat. One was rude the whole time, after they ate the nice sister came up to me and apologized. I told her it wasn't a big deal, she then explained to me that their mom had just passed & her sister was having a hard time. We talked for a bit and it was one of the best conversations I've had with someone. She told me what she'd been through & I asked how she stayed so positive. She just responded, "that's just life," I've never forgotten those words. After that conversation, it helped me overcome a lot of things. Another was from an elderly couple, he ordered his food and told me they had just come back from a trip across the country. They sold their home and bought a RV so they could accomplish their dream of travelling. He asked me if I wanted to see the picture, which of course I said yes. Seeing him talk about how happy he was & how he enjoyed doing this with his wife just made me happy. Ok last one promise. I never give money to homeless people, I usually buy food and eat with them. This particular time, I bought this guy food & coffee and he began telling me what he'd been through. Its definitely an eye opener hearing the struggles these people go through & how they lost it all. After we finished he told me that not many people would do this with him & that he knew I would get far in life. It definitely have me the push I needed at that point in my life. Those 2 hours I spent with him talking, were one of the best conversations I've had with someone. The only regret I have is not being able to find him to offer him to work for me, I pass through there everyday hoping to see him, but no luck.[/spoiler]
