You can never be to generouse

The other day, i had to take the train so i could attend my driving lesson. I don't enjoy going on the train because for starters it ain't cheap and frankly it's quit boring as well. The whole way threw I just told myself, Emilie when you get your driver’s license you will never go on that train again, you will be driving around in your own little Porsche 911 carrera, flashing your million dollar smile and singing “they see me rolling, they hating” to the world! But who was I kidding, I will probably ride that damn thing, more than I do now, because as a broke student, the chances of me just affording gas for my parents car is pretty damn small.
So after my driver’s lesson I found myself standing on the train-station again, ready to buy my ticket. I sadly looked at the old one, only bought and hour before, and a light appeared, it was still valid! Even though I was tempted to do a little happy dance on the overly crowed station, I stood still and waited. When a pink train appeared on the tracks, I saw every single person around me light up into a smile, because where we expected the normal boring blue train, we got a pink one with the words on the side “You can never be too generous”
Inside the train the usually grumpy ticket attendant was smiling, and I couldn’t help to get a little suspicious. A few minutes later, he came around with a box with chocolate and offered every passenger a chocolate bar and wishing them a nice day.
And even though I’m allergic to almonds and wasn’t able to eat the chocolate with marzipan from Anthon Berg, it brought a huge smile to my face, and I went home, like I’m sure many others that day did, happy and with the realization that you can never be too generous!
I’m not saying, go out and give a load of chocolate to strangers, but sometimes the small things is the deal breaker.
But if you’re single and good looking I’m pretty sure that giving away chocolate is a totally underrated way to pick up someone.
Because who can say no to chocolate?
