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.
