And the Kindness of Strangers.
It doesn't happen often but when it does, the feeling is unbeatable. Most of us (city-folk, anyway) grew up with incessant warnings against interacting with strangers because people-with-unrecognizable-eyes-noses-ears-smiles are (obviously) all-things-evil. It's not until we're older, more informed, and self-sufficient that we realize the opposite is true, too: strangers can dumbfound us with selfless generosity that surpasses even the most heartfelt gestures of loves ones. Although these exchanges are often short-lived and far-between, the feeling (even if equally brief) is a rarity worth each split-second. Here's to losing our wallets and discovering long, lost recordings! Enjoy.
