The
other day I saw one of the sweetest things a gentleman can do. It was simple,
but something you don’t really see anymore, not even at Publix, which is
ridiculous. A very old woman was walking to her car with a couple of Grocery
bags, when a young man in his twenties came up to her and offered her a hand.
She thankfully accepted his offer and allowed the boy to take her bags into her
car.
While
I was watching this I thought “oh how sweet” and was instantly reminded of the
young boy from UP trying to attain his last patch. Of course in retrospect the
only true aspects connecting these two characters are that they are both males
who aided an elderly person… Don’t question my logic!
Well, while I was thinking this, my boyfriend
instantly took a defensive pose. It did not take me long to understand that the
reason he had prepared himself to attack was because not all people do good
things with good intentions. It’s sad really, that good deeds go undone because
of this preconceived fear that everyone in the world has malicious intentions.
Thankfully, however, the young man did nothing but put the bags in the woman’s
car, shut the door, and smile.
