Humanity

This morning on my way into work I witnessed a wonderful moment of humanity. I was stopped at a red light and I watched as an old man was trying to cross the street. We've gotten quite a bit of snow in the past week, and not all of the sidewalks have been cleared off.

The old man was treading very carefully as he inched his way towards the edge of the curb, trying to get over a snow bank. Right before the light turned green, a young man, who had been walking a head of him, turned around and reached out his hand to help the old man over the snow bank.



What a great thing to see to start the day off right. A little act of kindness that stuck with me through out the entire day.
