#45: The One with the Trip to Istanbul
So far, we’ve had stories of people keeping wholesome secrets from close friends, partners, and family members. This person keeps a wholesome secret from their coworker! This storyteller won a lottery at their previous job that gave them the opportunity to travel to Istanbul for a vacation and work trip. However, when they overheard a coworker expressing disappointment about not being selected for the trip, the storyteller made a selfless decision to give up their spot.
The coworker was able to visit a long-lost family member in Istanbul, something that meant a great deal to her. The storyteller’s act of kindness made a lasting impact on their coworker and allowed her to experience something she had been hoping for. It’s a beautiful reminder of the power of generosity and how small acts of kindness can make a big difference in someone’s life. Good for them!
