Kindness in a Ride

"Being generous of spirit is a wonderful way to live."
-- Pete Seeger

We recently were visiting in another city and friends invited us to their home for dinner.  Our hotel was about half an hour from their home, but my friend insisted that her husband pick us up and take us to their house.  I accepted and thanked her, and said that we would take a cab back after dinner.  The husband ended up taking us back to our hotel after dinner.  He was very good-natured about spending two hours of his Saturday driving us back and forth, and was a terrific conversationalist during our rides.  It was a very kind thing for him to do and one that made us feel much more at home than if we had taken a cab.
