Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Little Life, But Big Symbol

Yesterday, at the Women's March in the rain, I noticed while listening to speakers that another earthworm had unbelievably survived the thousands of feet that had turned the field into churning mud. I stood over it for an hour, listening to inspirational speeches and protecting it from crowd surges and the ambulance men who came to rescue an elderly lady who had slipped in the mud and fallen badly. When it was time to begin the actual march, I picked up my tiny protegee and took it to a nearby planted area and put it down near a tree trunk. Bye, little friend!
