kind stranger sighting
Kind stranger sighting: I think this will be the third time I’ve written about this sort of thing. I can’t help but want to share when I see strangers doing caring things for other strangers, these situations make my heart leap and give me immense hope.
This is short and simple but lovely:
When I was climbing up the stairs from the train platform to the street on my way home last night I saw a man in a business suit helping an elderly women carry her personal grocery cart (one of those tall cloth bags on two wheels) up the stairs. It was so very touching. They parted ways at the top of the stairs, but I can’t help but think there was a taste of the kin-dom, a taste of salvation in that moment, both for them and for me.

i saw more of that living in the big city than i have living in a rural small town. go figure.
