In a conversation with a friend she expressed how much she loved providing services.

She loved to do manicures & pedis. She loved coloring hair to a clients perfection. She talked about being tipped $100 once just because of her service.

That reminded me of a time as a waitress i was tipped $100. The guests were about 6 white men who arrived on motorcycles, They wore rebel flags on their leather vests and Devil's Disciples was written across their back (true story, it was in south Alabama btw).

At first I saw men. Then I saw symbols and words that represented (what I was taught to be) 'evil' things.

A few of the girls (white girls too) expressed that they hoped they didn't sit in their section (they do that about lots of people black white foreign young old...just depends on wether or not they 'look broke or weird').

So they walk in and yep, you guessed it, sat in my section. Even though they were 'scary bikers' I served them like i'd serve my boss. I waited on them like i'd want to be waited on. They told jokes and were thankful for my service.

They left me $100 tip. The 'scary bikers' no one wanted to serve because we were too busy judging people we didn't know anything about left me 5 crispy 20 dollar bills (I was making $2/hour and tips which barely added up to $100 so a single tip being that much was totally awesome).

Im sharing this just to remind myself anyone else who needs a reminder, the golden rule is still very golden. When we serve others without reverence to what he/she can or can't do for us that energy comes back to us! Sometimes sooner than later. Be positive, serve others, thats love lol
