Kindness on the Street

“If you walk down the street and smile at someone, that will get passed on to the next person.  That has the power to change someone’s day.”

-- Julianna Margulies

Riding in a cab, I saw a woman with a child in a running stroller struggling to hold on to the stroller while she also held open the door to a convenience store.  The door to the store was awkwardly positioned off a sidewalk with an incline, so the woman had to hang on to the stroller so that it would not roll away.  I wondered what she was doing until I saw that she was holding the door open for a man in a wheelchair.  Once he went safely inside, she continued on her jog.
