Happy Girl

There is a young woman who works at our local Walmart. She is perpetually happy. So much so, that for a long time, I would avoid her line because it just got so annoying. Then I realized how hard it is to be happy all the time. How hard it is to treat each customer as if you are tickled to see them. And I decided to purposely choose her every chance I get.

She always asks how you are, and is smiling. She always asks you about your family and will tell you a little about hers, but not much. She takes her time checking you out. I like that very much in this fast paced world.
She always folds the receipt neatly, and before handing it to you, tells you to have a very blessed day. She lifts spirits in her own small way and I know God smiles at her constantly.

Her name is Jamie, and she's a happy girl. I heart her.
