Consideration

One day, a ten-year-old boy went to an ice­ cream shop, sat at a table and asked the waitress, "How much is an ice-cream cone?" 

She said ,"seventy-five cents." 

The boy started counting the coins he had in his hand. Then he asked how much a small cup of ice-cream was. The waitress impatiently replied, "sixty­ five cents." 

The boy said, "I will have the small ice-cream cup." 

He had his ice-cream, paid the bill and left. When the waitress came to pick up the empty plate, she was touched. Underneath were ten one-cent coins as tip. The little boy had consideration for the waitress before he ordered his ice-cream. He showed sensitivity and caring. He thought of others before himself.
