Just wanted to share a smile with you. The past few days, I - like many Americans, have been running errands that involed malls or shopping centers. I was patient when waiting for a space, which served me well. But what made me smile was I developed a habit of, when I was ready to leave and walking to my car, I'd knock on the window of one of the cars frantically looking, and say "I'm driving the green CRV over there, and I'm about to leave, you can have my space."
From the reactions I got each time, you'd think I have given them an envelope of money - surprise and big smiles and profuse thanks. All for doing something I'd be doing anyway - leaving a parking place! I'm gonna remember that next holiday!
And yes, for those who know me, I do travel with my jingles bells in my pocket, that jingle quietly as I walk!

After a horrible experience in a very crowded store that I'm not used to in my small town, he was a lifesaver.
