| | an open thank you
Once again, I am writing a letter to someone who will never get it, to someone whom I have seen once in my life, to someone whom I will probably never see again, and to someone whose name I do not, and probably will never know.
Yet, to this person, I owe a huge thank you.
This is the person who, upon seeing a car accident happen on his street, left the comfort and security of his home to step out into the light rain and to offer his assistance and his cell phone to those who may need it. This is the person who waited with the confused and befuddled drivers until the police arrived to take statements. This is the person who lent his own strength to move a stalled car to the side of the road so that others could pass by. This is the person who made what was obviously a horrible experience a little bit better.
To this person, thank you.
This is the second time I've been in such a situation and once again, I am both awed and humbled by the humanity and kindness that some people display towards complete strangers. If there is any hope for this country, it lies not with the leaders in Washington, but with people like this.
Thank you. |
