So Grateful

This week I found myself swamped with homework and projects and simply trying to survive the rigors of college.  In the mist of all this I finally found the time to go the grocery store.  As I was leaving and had just backed up my car, I found that it stalled in the middle of the parking lot.  Just what I needed, now I had to find a place to take my car, and somehow I knew that it was going to take a lot of my time.  Thankfully I was with my friend Ashley and she pushed my car out of the way.  While another complete stranger came and helped to try to jump the battery on my car.  Unfortunately the battery was not the issue and he told me some others things it might be.  After getting someone to come and pick me up I called my dad and explained to him the situation my Dad (who works about an hour away) immediately told me that he would be on his way to come help me get my car to the shop.  I was so grateful for my Dad and is kindness and love he showed from me.  I learned a lot from this situation about the love that my Dad has for me, but it made me answer the question would I do the same for someone I love and care about or even someone I didn't know.  Going forward I want to make sure that I don't get too caught up in my world that I forget about other's people life.  So now I will make sure to take every opportunity to help others, because I know the difference it can make.
