Mom asks for the check at a restaurant, but discovers that a stranger has already paid it for her

Sometimes an ordinary day can turn into something special to be remembered forever with a smile on your face. Nyesha Wingate, an African American woman knows what this feels like and she told her emotional story on Facebook. This is the story of when she met a stranger inside a restaurant on a day like many others.

Nyesha had gone to eat at Cracker Barrel with her son. Once the meal was over, the woman asked for the bill (check). Unbeknownst to her, Nyesha had attracted the attention of a stranger. No doubt she expected the waiter to put the bill on the table and to settle it. However, this did not happen: the waiter tore up the bill right in front of her eyes, explaining that the bill had already been settled.

Soon after, Nyesha noticed a white man with graying hair approaching their table. She had no idea who he was. "I was blessed this morning when the Cracker Barrell waiter tore up my bill and said," This has been paid for! "Then this amazing gentleman walked up to me," explained the woman in her Facebook post, stating that the stranger had tears in his eyes.

"He told me," We really have to get over all these racial tensions in America and I've been looking for ways to put words into practice! "I gave him my biggest hug and thanked him! How can we hate someone created by a perfect and loving God? I have received more blessings from his intervention and his conversation than from the meal he paid forl! Thank you Al! May God bless America with more people like you! "concluded Nyesha.

The post garnered thousands of shares and many comments. Some users who read the touching story admitted that they were inspired by it and want to replicate similar acts of kindness; while others said that the story gave them hope in humanity despite all the stories of racial hatred in the news. The Wingate story is one of many cases of people showing love and kindness towards others, regardless of so-called racial barriers.

This story dates back to 2016, in the period in which tensions had been particularly high within black communities throughout the United States. Presumably because of this, the kind Al sought a way to express his solidarity with black people, and his support for the Black Lives Matter movement.
