On my way to work today I pulled up next to a very new looking Cadillac CTX. As I pulled up admiring the unblemished silvery paint, I realized the woman driving it was on the phone and crying.
Ever had a single image can burn into your brain? Here's this woman, no doubt having a very bad day, and all these thoughts rush through my head. I had this urge to tell her that everything would be ok. That things will get better. I was reminded of the times that I was distraught and crying as I drove, wiping the tears from my eyes to see, and on more than one occasion, pulling over because I lost the battle. And one small hypocritical thought, that it wasn't safe for her to be driving on the phone...
I don't know why this pulled at my heart strings today. But it did. And when the light turned, I drove on with a silent prayer that her day would get better.
