Agnes Pays it forward (1)


1. Brewing coffee for my classmates.

When a classmate expressed his desperate need for caffeine after lunch, I immediately jumped at the opportunity to help. It’s obviously a small gesture, but it seemed like a good place to start. I asked if anyone else wanted some and ended up brewing a whole pot. I rather sheepishly explained to everyone that I wasn’t doing it out of the goodness of my heart, but that I was on a mission. In retrospect, I wonder why I was so reluctant to let them think I was just being genuinely nice.
