In the spirit of the holidays, I will share some touching stories over the next few days on the kindness of strangers.
Here’s two:
Marilyn Attebery, Washington — I was driving home in a blizzard when I noticed a vehicle tail me. Suddenly, my tire blew and I pulled off the road. So did the other car. A man jumped out from behind the wheel and without hesitation changed the flat. After my car was fixed, he admitted, “I was going to get off 2 miles back, but I thought your tire didn’t look good.”
Sheela Mayes, Louisiana — Children were playing at IKEA when my 5-year-old granddaughter motioned for a small boy to stop. She knelt down before him and retied his shoelaces. No words were spoken, but after she finished, both smiled shyly and raced off in different directions.
