Amazing experience picking up a Hitchhiker

Tweet

Today I had an amazing experience picking up a hitchhiker, this is the first time I've ever done this but people that are hitchhiking don't always look like people you want to pick up. Anyways I was driving through Petoskey because I had a tattoo appointment scheduled and I happened to see this young lady about my age at first looking like she was throwing her arms up in frustration and then I saw her stick her thumb out. I drove past at first because I was kind of already passing her as I saw her stick her thumb out. Just before I saw her my artist had texted me and told me that he was going to be about fifteen to twenty minutes late, so I had time to waste anyways so I turned back around and asked her where she was headed. She said that she was headed to the Upper Peninsula and it turned out that she was actually headed to Marquette. I ended up driving her from Petoskey to Levering which was about a forty minute drive. The ride was really great though because it turned out we had a lot of things in common and we quickly got into a deep and enjoyable conversation. I felt that I should pick her up because when I saw her I could tell by looking at her that she was going to be a really nice girl. She had on a really pretty dress and she looked like a character that I would see at a music festival and I knew from that she was going to be a great person to give a ride. Anyways once we started talking it turned out she lived on a farmer and liked growing vegetables just like me and she also liked meditating and doing yoga and things. She was a really pretty girl and she began to talk with me about concepts in life and beliefs and we were quickly agreeing with each other and on a very similar level. We had really like thoughts and likes so it was a great car ride the whole way. I loved the conversation we had and once I dropped her off she asked for my address and if I would write back if she sent me a letter. It turned out that she's also going to a couple music festivals that I'm going to this year. After that she gave me a big hug and we both said how happy we were to meet each other and I wished her safe travels and told her I hoped that she would get to the Upper Peninsula soon. Overall I was really happy about the experience and have been thinking about it quite frequently today. I hope that I see her again in the future or that she does write me because she was a really great person. Anyways has anyone else here had an interesting experience in picking up a hitchhiker? Has anyone had a negative experience? What are your thoughts on picking up a hitchhiker? Thanks a lot everyone have a wonderful day
