Day #39

Strangers

A stranger helped me out recently. Someone i had never met before, not will likely ever meet again. They were kind when i was driving late at night and broke down in a remote area.

I’m not sure i would have been quite so welcoming at such a late hour, or in such a context, when all alone.

Are there limits to our actions? And are our actions always considered, or sometimes intuitive?

The stranger said ‘i could not have passed you by’, as if that were an explanation of their kindness. As if they were compelled to.

Use your sixty seconds to ask yourself this: are you more likely to offer, or to wait to be asked?

Is your answer contextual, or absolute - are you always sure how you would react?
