“Love
and kindness are never wasted. They
always make a difference. They bless the
one who receives them, and they bless you, the giver.”
~ Barbara De Angelis
I live in a city that is
routinely rated as one of the most unfriendly in which to drive. However, on a recent morning, I encountered
two drivers who, with a flicker of their lights, let me know that they were
going to help me out. In the first case,
I was trying to make a left turn without a traffic light and a car coming in
the opposite direction, stopped and flicked the lights to let me know I could
turn. In the second, I had to change
lanes as an ambulance had stopped in my lane to assist someone and again, with
a flick of the lights, someone let me merge into the other lane. Small things and yet, they made my life a
little easier and the kindnesses – by strangers – made me smile. (Think of how many people are
thrown off by a nasty encounter on the road.)
It reminded me that we can positively impact others with just a little
effort.
