Nourishing Tips

A man who receives regular nourishment at a local diner decided to nourish its wait staff in return.

Dwayne Clark, once "dirt poor" and now CEO of Aegis Living, left a $3000 tip at the Brief Encounter Café in Washington D.C. along with this message: Hopefully, this will help all of you have a better Christmas.

Clark then recalled his own childhood struggles.  By age seven, he was washing dishes while his mother “cooked in a diner just like this.”  He therefore witnessed “how hard” his mother “worked for people who weren’t always appreciative.”

You don’t have to be a CEO to appreciate those who work hard for others.  A simple thank-you can go a long way toward nourishing heart and soul.
