“We can’t help everyone, but everyone can help someone.”
~ Ronald Reagan
On a recent busy evening at a Cuban restaurant, we sat next to a woman having dinner with her two daughters – one girl looked about 9 years old and the other about 4. It became increasingly difficult for the mother to eat as the younger girl was incredibly active, running around the restaurant. One of the servers came to the mother’s assistance. She sat the little girl on her lap and distracted her. When that seemed to run its course, the server picked up the younger daughter and walked around with her, so that the mother could finish eating. We all need a little help from our friends – or sometimes the kindness of strangers.
