Ok, I've been having a pretty bad day today (see my vent earlier) and tonight I had to go to the bus station to pick up a bike someone sent me. The bike was still in a box, so I couldn't really roll it home... I had to actually carry the box.
And me, being stuborn and kind of dumb, I decided to take the subway back with the bike instead of taking a taxi. Which wasn't so bad... except that I live a few blocks from the station, so I had to carry that big box all the way there.
Well, I guess I looked kind of pathetic carrying that box, so some man who was walking by offered to help me carry it home. The surprising thing is, he wasn't even walking in the same direction... so he actually went out of his way to help me carry the box.
It made such a huge difference... not only making it A LOT easier to carry the box, but it made me feel good that some stranger would help me like that.
I wish I could really thank him, but I'll probably never see him again. But I truly believe in Karma and I am sure he will get his just reward sooner or later.
