chuckled a little bit and then happened to look down and discovered I 
was wearing my casual afternoon pajamas. 

Having no pockets in my pajamas, I had no wallet on me and therefore had
no way to pay for those items. At this point, I was not laughing, but 
the people behind me seemed to be laughing even louder. 

I begin to understand why people were smiling and laughing and pointing
at me. It was not that they were happy so much as it was I looked 
ridiculous in my afternoon casual pajamas. I have never worn pajamas 
out in public before, and I promised myself I would never do it again. 

I did not know how to pay for those two items. Trying to figure out what
to do, someone came up behind me and told the cashier, “Put his items 
on my card because the entertainment has been worth it.” 

Everybody behind me was laughing, and I did not know exactly what to do.
I looked at the lady and said, "Thank you for this." 

“No,” she said, “thank you for the entertainment.” 

Driving out of the parking lot, I could not help but think of a verse of
Scripture, “And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to 
them likewise” (Luke 6:31). 

Being generous sometimes is a little act of kindness.
