Money doesn't define a person

One day a senior woman went to a thrift shop. She was there to shop for her clothes. She spent couples of minutes to choose her dress. Having chosen a few items to her liking, she approached the assistants. There were to young lady as assistants.

The senior woman went to them and asked them where the fitting room was. She added that she could not find it out. One of the assistant replied that she should open her eyes and look harder for finding out. The other one replied that they could not waste their time explaining it to everyone.

The woman was shocked at their behavior but didn't respond to them. She silently went to look for the fitting room. After checking the items she returned to the assistants and told them that those clothes fit her perfectly. The two ladies were taking tea then. She asked them if they would mind if they had left her bags there while she was looking for some more.

The two girl laughed at her and told her to carry those rags with her. They asked her who she thought they were, if they were her servants. She was so surprised at their behavior and asked them why they were talking to her in that manner. She again asked them if she had been so rude to them.

But they were not feeling any shame. One of them asked her how else they were supposed to talk to her. She also said that service there was on par with that shop's prestige. The senior woman was again shocked and they asked her if she expected thrift shop employees to be nice to her. They both laughed and exclaimed that it was funny.

The woman was offended by their conduct. But decided not to confront them and just walked away. She again went to choose her clothes and something truly unexpected happened just minutes later.

A young lady customer that had just walked into the shop, recognized the senior woman and got emotional. She went to her and exclaimed if it was really her. She again asked if she was Jessica Kirk. She again asked if she was right. The senior woman smiled and replied that she was right. The young customer was surprised and exclaimed that she could not believe it.

She asked Jessica if she could take a picture with her. She requested her and she greed to have. The young lady said that she would show it to her friends. She added that they admired her. The two assistants saw these everything and were taken aback by the scene.

They asked each other what that was. But both of them didn't get it. After a while the young lady chose her clothes and came to the counter to pay the bills. When she was about to leave the two assistants asked her who the woman was she had just taken a picture with.

She asked them if they didn't know her. She also said that her name was Jessica Kirk and she was a famous fashion designer. She was admired by many and then the young lady suggested them to take a picture with her if they got the opportunity. She added that Jessica was so cool and then left.

After choosing all of the clothes, Jessica came to the counter. She was about to pay for her purchase and then the two assistants changed their tone. They asked her politely if they could ask her a question. She smiled and they asked why she was buying clothes in such a place when she was so rich and famous.

She asked them what the wrong was with that. She said that the rich and famous don't see the point in ostentatiousness. She asked them why they would need pretentious luxury. She said that she wore what was comfortable and on top of that, she helped the planet by buying second-hand clothes. She told them to believe her that those clothes were better than buying brand outfits.

She left and her words stunned the girls. They felt ashamed of their behavior. That incident made them to change their outlook.

Wealth doesn't make someone better, money doesn't define a person. What matter is what's in their heart.
