The Waitress' Tip

When an ice cream sundae cost much less, a boy entered a coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him. "How much is an ice cream sundae?"

"Fifty cents," replied the waitress.

The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied a number of coins in it. "How much is a dish of plain ice cream?" he inquired.

Some people were now waiting for a table, and the waitress was impatient. "Thirty-five cents," she said angrily.

The little boy again counted the coins. "I'll have the plain ice cream."

The waitress brought the ice cream and walked away. The boy finished, paid the cashier, and departed.

When the waitress came back, she swallowed hard at what she saw. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nickels and five pennies ( Fifteen cents)- her tip.

Too often we look at people from the surface only and we formed the wrong impressions on them.We may have easily misunderstood someone else intentions just because we always wanted to be right and perfect all the time and expect others to understand our situation but we failed to understand theirs.We judged others too easily and sometimes too unneccessarily.
When we start making judgement on others ,we do not define who they are but instead exposed our true self and character.
