I had just arrived at Long Beach Airport. I was stressed that I had forgotten something
and that I wouldn't
accomplish all that I needed to. I was only going to be in California for two
days and I only had one day to renew my Ecuadorian passport or my trip would be
in vain. With only a few weeks left in
school it was a real sacrifice to take a weekend away from school for this
trip; I needed everything to go smoothly.
I called my dad to tell him that I had arrived safely and while I was on
the phone a saw someone who seemed to be even more stressed than I was. She was holding a young baby and trying to
pick up her stroller that had fallen. I
could tell that she was just stressed and this was the cherry on top. After several failed attempts to pick up the
stroller I left my bags and helped her pick it up. It was simple. It really required almost zero effort from
me, but you could tell that it was just what she needed and that she was
grateful.
