Two incidences, two different responses.

 

While at the traffic lights yesterday, I heard some sounds of screeching tyres and saw two cars collided right in front of me. It’s probably like 3-5 meters away. A fast oncoming car got banged by a turning car and the car skidded a little and landed just beside me. I saw both drivers safe, I shook my head (gave a silent verdict) and drove off. I know I was having a helluva crap day. But when I looked at the rear mirror, I wondered, why didn’t I stop to help, a little guilt crept onto me.

 

At Borders today, I was walking past the stationery section, and a stack of notebooks dropped right in front of me. No, I didn’t touch them at all. I picked them up and stacked them neatly onto the shelf again. I felt a little happy about doing that.

 

While walking away, I thought of the incident that happened yesterday. And I found a new ability, I can choose. Little events in life that taught me something.
