Kindness on the Train

“I shall pass through this world but once.  Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being, let me do it now.  Let me not defer it or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.”
~ Stephen Grellet

I recently was taking a train with a work colleague.  We each had our rollerboard suitcase as well as two other bags.  When we arrived at the train to board, we were faced with four steep steps up to the train.  As she and I talked about how we would get the bags up, a young man behind us offered to help.  He put down his bag and foisted one suitcase and then the other up onto the train.  We were incredibly grateful.
