Humankind(ness)
 
Today, we’re sharing a story from reader Michelle M. in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. “I was supposed to be escorting my 80-year-old mother on the way home from a Denver trip. She left her purse as she exited the shuttle bus, but luckily I saw it. Walking to the next terminal, we were laughing about it because it’s usually me who forgets things. We stopped to check my phone battery only to find it was not to be found. Frantically, I called it and the driver answered. “Then, he not only waited (instead of saying, ‘Make your way back to the lot’s lost and found’) but stayed on the phone with me until I made my way down and over, breathlessly (two levels and back over to the west terminal). He saved my bacon. Then, a man at the gate noticed my phone charger was sagging in the outlet and leaned down to resolve the problem for me. They both made my day much better! Looking out for others is selfless and appreciated!”
