Wednesday afternoon I went to take my lunch break, got in my car, drove across the street to the Chick-fil-A, got my nuggets and drove back to our work parking lot. After I pulled in, a gentleman in his mid-50s (I guess) pulled in behind me. I just thought he was going into an office in our building. H then honked at me and made a motion for me to roll my window down, I did and he told me that my back right tire was really really low and that I should take a look at it. He then drove away. I jumped out of my car after a few minutes and checked my tire, and it was in fact low. It probably looked flat from afar. I finished eating my nuggets and went to go remedy my tire situation.

Has anybody ever made you feel better about humankind with a random act of kindness?

Oh, my! I'm glad you got your tire attended to!
Once about ten years ago I went off the road during a winter snow storm, and a young guy and his mom stopped and pulled me out of the ditch with their truck. I tried to give them the $30 or $40 I had on me, but they refused to take it.
And that is exactly why I don't live in places that snow like crazy. But seriously, I'm glad they came along and rescued you.
Moments like these really do renew my faith in humanity.
