Brenda Pearson had been a stay-at-home mom for two years before she started\u00a0working as a waitress at the 4 Star Diner\u00a0in Roland, Oklahoma. On Mother’s Day, an act of kindness and generosity by a customer touched her heart and helped her with her struggling finances.<\/p>\n
It was a regular day at the diner when\u00a0a customer walked in and ordered one cheeseburger, Brenda recalls.\u00a0When it was time to pay, he said he wanted to leave a surprise tip.<\/p>\n
“The other customers were coming to pay out and he said $1000,” Pearson told 5 News. “I said what? Are you serious? He said yes. I couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t hardly breathe. It took my breath away.”<\/p>\n
And the act of kindness didn’t end there.\u00a0He came back for dessert an hour later and left another $1,000 tip.\u00a0The generous customer turned out to be a truck driver named David Platt.<\/p>\n
“It was late and there wasn’t really anybody around and so I got talking to her a little bit,” David said. “We talked about the Lord and about her life and her children. I got the impression that she was having a hard time of it, so I thought I’d just help her out a little bit.”<\/p>\n
With people like David around, the world indeed becomes a beautiful place to live in!<\/p>\n
