Kindness in an Emergency

Mary Griffiths shares a personal story of a difficult time in her life after her brother's suicide. In an effort to find something that would make her happy, she decided to learn how to drive a car with manual transmission. However, on the day she picked up her new car, she encountered heavy traffic on a narrow two-way road and her car stalled. Frustrated and feeling helpless, Mary was met with angry drivers honking and cursing at her. In this moment of despair, a kind stranger named Robin offered her help without hesitation. Robin not only directed traffic but also turned the ordeal into a positive experience, reminding Mary that kindness and support are essential in times of need.
