It only takes a minute of your time, but seems to make a big difference.
Today we were at Wal-Mart. There was a lady older than I (imagine that!) who was trying to navigate one of the scooter/carts. We were walking behind her and I saw her purse fall and dump onto the floor of the car at her feet. I stopped and helped her right the purse and gather the things that had spilled.
Later we were checking out at the same time in different lines. I saw that she would finish before we did and that she would need to drive her cart past us. I stood aside and waited for her to pass me. When she got up next to me, she wiggled her finger at me, motioning me closer. She said, “THANK YOU for your kindness and courtesy.” I gave her a quick hug and smiled at her.
I wanted to adopt her so I could help her more.
