Little eyes are watching

When I was a kid we were very poor. I was raised by an immigrant mother who was struggling to find her place in this new country. We drove a run down car which would often overheat in the hot Miami sun. One day as we were driving, we saw an elderly couple struggling to walk home. The wife was literally pushing her husband who looked like he would pass out anytime. My mum pulled over and had them come inside the car. We took them to their apartment which was only a block away. That was the day that I learned through example that not only is helping others important but that it feels good!
