One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I could barely make out the glow of the red stoplight ahead of the car in front of me, the rain was coming down in sheets. An elderly woman was slowly making her way across the street, gingerly stepping through the massive puddles. As she neared the car, I watched as a young man dashed out to offer the woman his umbrella. Standing ankle deep in a water, soaking wet, the elderly woman graciously accepted. By the time the she made it across the street, however, the elderly woman had given the umbrella away to another lady, who in turn handed it to her young son. He briefly shielded himself from the monsoon before hurriedly ushering some other children under the umbrella with him. Together, the group of five or six children crossed the street, all packed under the umbrella, and their parents followed behind. All were smiling.

I was in Thailand. In the time it took a stoplight to turn from red to green, I was reminded that people, all over the world, are generally good. And it made me smile.
