Be a lover, not a hater.

I saved an old guy from getting walloped at an intersection.

We were both waiting at the crosswalk waiting to walk in the same direction. After the light changed, we both expected that the white walking creature would appear and we would be able to walk.

I noticed that this white walking creature did not appear. I realized this was because the traffic light that should have turned green became a green left turn arrow instead.

Unfortunately, the old guy whom I shared the crosswalk with didn’t notice that and committed himself to crossing the intersection.

I saw him dash out and the white walking creature not appear and left turning traffic prepare to introduce itself to his hip bone.

My first thought was, “Wow this is going to be interesting!” But I decided that I wouldn’t use his life for my entertainment purposes today.

He was almost to the middle of the intersection when I yelled, “Hey hold up!” He stopped and looked back at me like I was crazy.

Right then, a mail truck crossed less than five feet in front of him. He got spooked and froze until I started crossing and got out to where he was. He started walking with me and telling me how appreciative he was. He was telling me he had something was on his mind and wasn’t even paying attention.

He was almost worry-free for the rest of eternity.
