Pleasant Surprise!

Good things happen due to COVID-19. Let me explain.
 
I have had a monthly subscription to an online Qigong class now for sometime. I love the class and, being on a fixed income, has made me revisit where our money goes. Given other household expenses, I made the decision to cancel my subscription and to tape an exercise program on TV which costs me nothing.
 
So, I contacted the Qigong site to let them know I wanted to cancel my membership. My assumption was they would continue to try to sell me the courses. We all know assumptions can get you in trouble…
 
The response I got from the site administrator left me feeling so very grateful…and surprised. I love it when my assumptions are challenged. She wrote me back with great empathy. She indicated the subscription is not for everyone. She then said she wanted to “gift” me with a life time membership to two of their most popular Qigong programs. She provided me with an access link to the individual courses. No selling, no push back…just an understanding person with gift in hand.
 
During this time of COVID-19, kindness makes a big difference. We all have the power to be kind to others. Choose kindness!
