COKE PROJECT
This here valley of Provo is a swarming infestation of charity. Well that's what everyone thinks isn't it? Around here things are the same as everywhere else minus the mass drinking for a college town. For the assignment of giving to someone and checking the reaction, this was a lot harder than I thought. I figured I would find an easy opportunity just sitting around on the couch, right, got to move and do something. I was first given a observation of first hand being a receiver of someone’s generosity. I had to get something fixed on my car and took it up to a small business, usually car repair places try to pick you up and shake you for all you got. Taking your cell phone, wallet, bubble gum and first born if you were holding them. Yet this man did the work took his time found nothing wrong and didn’t charge me for his labor. Wow, amazing I know. Back to the Soda project, I was at Arby’s and ordered my food was waiting and the people behind me didn’t want to order a drink so I said “hey here’s a few dollars drinks are on me.” “No no no cant do that I wanted water anyways” they said. I told them sorry I can’t take the money back, they smiled and said thank you. A simple smile and thank you wow amazing how just a small act can give someone a huge lift through the day. I got a great deal on the car and they got a great deal on a coke. Amazing how the world works.
