You Never Know Who Your Talking To

Tonight the Cochrane family went out to Ledo’s Pizza in Crofton. It is the monthly fund raiser for Crofton Woods. Alex just loves it because he gets a chance to socialize with all of his friends. Toward the end of our meal we started talking to our waitress, Bridgette. We told Bridgette how happy we were that Ledo’s went out of their way to build community by hosting the school night. It is a night that the entire family looks forward to. We found out that Bridgette wasn’t an ordinary waitress. Actually, she was the owner’s daughter. I would have never guessed in a million years that her Dad owned the place. She said that she helps out at the restaurant on school nights because of the volume. It just goes to show you that you never know who you are speaking with. There is a phrase that says that the measure of a man can be determined by how they act to someone that can do nothing to them or for them. In our culture, there is still a perceived idea that some people are better then others depending on their perceived status. There is a tendancy to treat these people better then the Janator or the waitress. From a religious perspective, even Jesus washed the feet of his disciples. This was such a great lesson for the Cochrane Family to share at dinner. We are all equal in the sight of our creator.
