The Kindness of Strangers

Photobucket

We’ll get back to our usual Apocalypstick in just a bit but I wanted to take the time to thank the kind girl at Beauty Bar who held the broken bathroom door stall closed for me. That was really cool of you. I hope I find you one day so I can thank you. You heard my tipsy fearful voice asking, “Uh oh, does this even lock?” and you said, “I got it” and got you did. You held that door while I peed, asking no questions or for anything in return. Then I said, “OK I’m done” and thanked you and you left. I didn’t even see your face. The word “hero” is thrown around a lot but I don’t think it’s any exaggeration when I say that what you did for me Friday night was the greatest act of heroism that anyone has ever done anywhere.

Thank you, kind stranger. May karma repay you in full.
