An act of kindness that anyone has ever shown me was when my car would not start. I had taken my daughter and her cousin to the park on a nice day, and when we were in the car I put the key in the ignition and turned the key, but the car would not start at all. I was really upset. It was in the afternoon and we were getting hungry, but no matter what I did, the car would not start.
Out of nowhere, this man pulled up beside my car and asked if I needed help. I told him what was going on and he took a look to discover a part of my battery had come off. There was no way to fix it unless I took it to a mechanic. I did not know what to do. I had no phone and had only ten dollars on me.
The man saw that I was really stressing out over my situation, so he offered to take my family and me home. I was really happy that he was willing to go out of his way to help us because the park where we were was on the Southwest side of Oklahoma City and I lived on the Northwest side.
I was really grateful because he was the only person willing to help us. I had asked so many others who just simply did not care. Even when they saw the children with me, they still did not help. This goes to show there are still angels here on earth, even in this evil world.
I could never put in words how thankful I am for his kindness to help us. This act of kindness has made me really think of how I can be a better person. So I try my best to help anyone who needs help. I also think if more people were like the man at the park, then the world would be a great place.
