"I'm sharing this beautiful story to encourage others just to be kind to one another. You never know what one is going through. A kind gesture goes a long way.
"I was paying for my groceries when I asked her how her day had been going. She gave me this look as though it hadn't been a good day. She had told me, 'Not so good as I got to work soaking wet from the rain, and it's my birthday today.'

Ambur added that she immediately felt she needed to bless the woman. She concluded:

"You never know what cashiers are going through. Always be kind to them and put a smile on their faces. Seeing her smile after our conversation really made my heart fulfilled."
