Why are people so "amazed" when someone does something good? I see good things the time, from little things to big things. Sometimes I think we get what we expect because of what WE project and not the other person. Glad to know someone helped when you needed it.
in the fast paced world we live in,and the mind set of society these days("its all about me first" mind set)
it is rare for most people to go out of their way to help a total stranger out.especially when you dont know if that person is willing to accept the help and may get upset and even harm you for trying to do the right thing.
i for one(if im not in the semi,because i have schedule to keep when in it) will stop and try to help those in need if they look like they really need assistance. i dont trust people in general,so when i do get out of my vehicle to help that stranger i nonchanlantly let them be aware of the fact that i am carrying a sidearm(brush my jacket off to the side just enough that they can see it,then let my jacket fall back into place).never had a problem nor a negative comment from folks when i stop and offer help.
so yes,there is still hope for mankind
