Day #117: Give Help to a Struggling Stranger

We stopped by the Post Office today on our way to Virginia Beach. As we were leaving, I noticed a lady in the parking lot kicking her truck's tailgate. She looked flustered.

I drove closer to see if she wanted a hand. "Actually, yes" was her answer.

The tailgate was bent out of shape and had completely come off the truck. Together we were able to anchor it securely in less than 10 minutes. While it was an easy task with two people, it would have been pretty rough for her to have to try do on her own.

Have you ever stopped to help a stranger?
