#33: Bit of a Brag
Here’s the thing about this story. It could be true. I have absolutely no proof one way or the other. I have no reason to believe that the person who wrote this tweet is not a nice sort of person who would accommodate someone else’s faith.
Here’s the problem: this story is thoroughly self-aggrandizing. It’s not about a nice thing that happened to her; it’s not even about a nice thing that happened to both of them and promoted interfaith cooperation. It’s all about what a great person she is, and people who genuinely do nice things for other people out of the goodness of their hearts usually don’t feel the need to brag about it on the Internet.
