Standing in Line For Someone Else
This happened to me 20 years ago and I'll always remember the kindness of this stranger.
I was pregnant with my second child and I was at the DMV office waiting in line to get the title to my car. It was taking a very long time. I must have sat down three times because I felt so dizzy. This pregnancy had been a hard one. I was in my eighth month and I was not feeling so great. I stood up and got back in line and started to feel faint again so I turned to go sit down and this young man stopped me and said that he would stand in line for me if I didn't mind. He told me that his wife had seen me sit down several times and that she was pregnant and understood how I was feeling.
I was living in Los Angeles at the time and hadn't met many people that were caring or polite. I was so thankful for that kind man who helped me out that day by standing in line for me. I'll never forget how much he helped me that day!
