Honk If You Love Kindness

Day 254

My act of kindness today might be disputed by some. Particularly the driver behind me.

On my way to work I was approaching a green light. The person coming the other direction had her left blinker on and was waiting for someone to stop to let her pass. Apparently she had been there a while since there was quite a back up of cars behind her. I stopped and waved her by, and as I did the light turned from green to yellow to red.

My next minute (although it felt like many more) was spent sitting at the red light while the driver behind me honked his displeasure. Kindness clearly is in the eye of the beholder.
