In-Flight Kindness

"The simple act of caring is heroic."
~ Edward Albert

On a recent flight, I had trouble finding space for my suitcase in the overhead compartments as the one above my seat was already taken. The flight attendant helped me find space in a compartment that was across the aisle and a little behind my seat, and as I went to put my suitcase up, a very nice gentleman said that he would do it. When the plane landed and everyone stood up eager to get out, I wondered how I would get to my suitcase.  I felt a tap on my hand and the same gentleman who had helped me earlier told me that he would get my bag. "I was looking at my bag and hoping that it would grow wings," I said. "It just did," he replied.
