Gratitude Language

Our next-door neighbor is the owner of a Chinese restaurant. They are the nicest and the most hard-working people I've ever seen. However, they are not fluent in English, so we never talk.

When we had a pick-up order from them for the first time about nine years ago, they gave us a ten-percent neighbor discount. However, I added that amount to my tips to show our support for their family business.?

When I opened the bag that night, I found four extra egg rolls we didn't order.?

Even today, we get those four egg rolls with every single order!

Gratitude is a feeling and it is independent of any language. Thanks so much Abhimanyu Gupta for your post
