One more story about good samaritans, friendly neighbours and such.
Today I heard a really lovely story about an 88 year old lady who was in a store and wanting to purchase an item that was on special. She was informed by the Sales person that she did not have enough money for the purchase. The lady thanked her and then sat down outside the store to transfer her groceries into her own shopping cart.
As she stood up to leave the young man who had been standing behind her in the Store she had just left came up to her and handed her the fry pan she had wanted to purchase. The lady was overwhelmed at such kindness, and after she had thanked him the young man simply smiled and walked away.
The age of chivalry is not dead, :0)

Sometimes it doesn't take a lot to perform a kind deed either.

Yes, it is easy to put people into different groups and only see the negative, isn't it?
