Sitting here at dilworth in Matthews, and watched a woman hold traffic while a handicapped person made the turn into the shopping center. How cool is that?! I have to say I am very impressed with how she handled the situation. I am ashamed to think that if i were put in the same situation I would most likely have done nothing. Traffic laws are made for just such a time as this. Why make a move? Because we care. We care for those who have a hard time getting through life.
It surprises me that this is the second, maybe more, post that i have done so far that has involved handicapped people. I think that the disabled have a place in my heart. It is touching to me whenever something – such as the woman I just witnessed – happens. So wonderful. My only question is, “why haven’t more people taken notice? Why is the first time I’ve seen someone take such care of the handicapped?”
I believe that we can all be making a difference. How? There are millions of organizations and charities that help the causes that we rare all secretly aware of, yet publicly ignoring. Please think about helping out the people who are so often discouraged and usually mistreated. Google it people! There’s so much we can be doing!!
