And this is not an April Fools joke.
I had to deliver a package to Fed-Ex. I had IVSM last week...been through the ringer and am still trying to rebuild my strength.
Got to the Store...no Handicapped Slots. I had to park about 100 yards away. I sat there thinking, "I can't hold on to a box and a walking stick". No shopping carts in sight. I was ready to cry.
So I sat there and finally mustered up enough courage to pick up the box and walk unaided to the store. I made it about five steps and stood there a minute...was sure I was going to hit the ground. There was no way I was going to make it. It dawned on me that had I taken my Rollater, I could have done it.
Just as I was about to return to the car, I saw a woman literally run out of the store toward me. She said, "That package looks too heavy for you...let me help." And she grabbed the package and all the paperwork and I was able to get my walking stick and follow her into the store.
What a beautiful thing she did. I thanked her from the bottom of my heart. Her random act of kindness made this gals day a bit easier.
May all of you experience a random act of kindness too.
