Tonight a complete stranger got me home.

Car completely dead outside the hardware store. Long day of fun auntie duties behind me.

A kind stranger in the store offered to help before I even had to ask properly.

Toolbox out. Bonnet up. Twenty minutes of his time, his expertise, and his kindness.

Wouldn't take a penny.

How fitting that the one customer in that store happened to be a mechanic.

Right place. Right time. Right person.

I don't know if Gary will ever read this. But tonight he pulled me out of a hole at the end of a long day — and I'm so grateful for him.

There are still so many good people in this world. 💛
