Thoughtful Thursday!

How often are you "thoughtful" of someone else?  What I mean by that is how often do you think about the needs and wants of someone other than yourself?  
I consider myself fairly thoughtful person.  Some might say too thoughtful at times, but I have noticed that I do spend a lot of time thinking about myself.   My goal is to do something "thoughtful" for someone each week, so each Thursday I will post my thoughtful goal for the week and then report back!  
My first thoughtful Thursday task is to Pay it Forward!  I know most of you probably know what this means and there is a movie about it.  I have heard of people "paying it forward" by buying the meal of the person behind them at the fast food drive through and other anonymous gestures.  I recently had someone ask me to pay it forward, and sadly, I have yet to do it.
I was at Walmart a few months ago, right before Christmas -so you can imagine the mayhem.  I just needed to make a quick run in and out, and had my baby with me.  I pulled through my parking space into the empty space in front of me to leave the parking lot when I nudged the bumper of a truck.  I couldn't believe it happened.  I pull into another spot and got out to check the damage on my car and the truck.  There was a little paint transfer, but no real damage.
I have never caused a wreck or hit any vehicle before, so I wasn't sure what to do.  I didn't want to just drive off , although I was tempted!  I didn't want to file a report with the police because it was not a serious accident.  However, I didn't know when the owner of the truck would come out of Walmart - at Christmas time!  I decided to wait it out - with my baby in the car!!!  Luckily my baby was a good sport about it.  He was easily entertained, took a bottle and I changed a diaper, all while waiting over an hour for the owner of the truck to come out.
Finally, the owner came out.  He was an older gentleman.  I walked up to him, baby in tow, and introduced myself and told him what had happened.  He rubbed his finger over the bumper and most of the paint transfer from my car wiped right off.  He told me that he really appreciated that I told him about it and said not to worry about his truck, but instead do something nice for someone else!  Pay it Forward!
