People can be irritating.
I've heard the anguished cry of "people!" often enough to know I'm not alone.
But people can also make your day, or at least create a momentary smile with a random act of kindness. It's good to remember them more often than the irritating ones, so that's the subject of this post. (After all, it's three more days until Thanksgiving!)
For instance, riding home on the bus the other day, a woman causally mentioned to another passenger that she was so tired, she might forget to get off at her stop. (Her stop was one that you had to pull the "stop requested" wire for.) She did start to dose off, but the bus driver remembered it was her stop and a fellow passenger alerted her.
She got off at the right place -- I noticed there were a few extra smiles on the bus.
Another day, waiting to board the bus, the young lady next to me dropped her bus ticket without noticing. A passerby quickly reached down and grabbed it and handed it back to her before either of us noticed it was gone. How nice!
And there are people who wish you a nice day or just smile back at you that make things brighter. I'll try to have more examples as they occur.
A bit a humor can make your day, too.
Here's a blog filled with humorous pictures and videos.
Caution: You could spend hours laughing!

Have fun! :)
