You Matter Moment of the Week
“I was at a store, and as the clerk helped other customers, I felt compelled to give her a You Matter card. As I stepped up to the register and paid for my purchase, she handed me my receipt and I handed her a card. She held it to her heart with both hands and said, ‘Oh! Thank you for this! You matter too!’ She came around the counter and gave me a hug. She said it meant a lot to her.
She proceeded to tell me about a customer who came to her store asking for a discount. When she said their store did not offer discounts, the man became angry and said, ‘Why? Don’t we matter?’ And she said, “Yes sir, you matter. Everyone matters, but I just work here, and my boss does not offer discounts.’ He huffed and puffed his way out of the store!
We then proceeded to have a long conversation about the divisiveness of our country these days, and we ended up teary eyed, but we both touched each other’s lives in just a few minutes! Every life and everyone matters.”
