A Few Seconds to Catch a Train

--by neems, posted Jul 6, 2012

My route to the grocery store runs parallel to the train tracks. One day, on my way to the store, a train was at the station. As I glanced down the street, I noticed a man running towards it.

From where he was, I could tell that he was too far away to make the train, even if he was running. So I stopped and offered him a ride.

We only interacted for a few seconds, but his grateful face made my day!
