“We are all here on earth to help others;
what on earth the others are here for I don’t know.”
~ W. H. Auden
Traveling
always presents opportunities for kindness and my latest trip was no
exception. Getting on this particular
flight involved going up stairs from the tarmac. I was carrying my rollerboard and an
oversized tote, and helping my mother with her suitcase.
Fortunately, the line was moving very slowly, so it enabled me to hoist one bag
on a step, then the other bag and then climb the step, and continue with that
pattern. I was less than halfway up when
a gentleman behind me said, “If you leave it right there, I will carry it up
for you.” Priceless.
