I was leaving the market yesterday and I noticed an elderly woman struggling to put her groceries in the back of her SUV. I was going to offer to help, but she was almost done by the time I got to my car, which happened to be right beside hers.
I loaded my things in my car and passed her walking as we were putting our carts away. When I got back to my car, she seemed to be slowly, with difficulty, climbing into her car. I walk up and told her I’d get her door for her once she was in the car, but she seemed a little timid. Agreeing, I closed her door for her and wished her a good afternoon.
I can remember back in the day, you didn’t have so many things to worry about. You didn’t worry about getting help from a stranger, or leaving out on your bike at 8:30 AM, no cell phone, and not coming back until we wanted or the job was finished. What wrong with the world today? I say it boils down to respect and honesty. I’m asking for any opinions if you have something you’d like to offer?
