Kindness and Courtesy on a Hot Afternoon

"Courtesy is as much a mark of a gentleman as courage."
~ Theodore Roosevelt

On a recent very hot weekend afternoon, I went to pick up food for a group of hungry teenagers working on a school project.  Just as I reached my car balancing two soda cups and a bag with a salad on top of two pizza boxes,  I dropped my car keys.  As I was figuring out how to pick up the keys without putting the food on the ground, a gentleman walking by raced over, picked up my keys, unlocked my car and opened the door for me.  And he was carrying a dog!  Thankfully, a small one.
