I was at a CVS store in the pouring rain in Texas.

An elderly woman was outside with a basket wwith wheels full of things, just standing there. I asked her if she needed help. She told me she was waiting for the rain to stop.

I was in a small car, no room to put in the basket and her, so I asked her how far she was going. Her apartment was right behind the CVS.

I asked her if she wanted me to walk her home. I pulled out my big umbrella from the back of the car, walked her and her groceries home, it was less than a 5-minute walk.

She told me that it was the kindest thing anyone had ever done for her, and she was so grateful.

It was a simple thing to do, took less than 10 minutes, but I changed her day, and gave her something that every human should do for another - help them out.

One kind act per day, my mom always told me. And I was so glad I noticed her, and said something.
