Gratefulness

Just want to note down what happen today. I was in rush for Dentist appointment for mum this morning, and I realize that I have empty gas tank of car, and I rushed to gas station. while I was all lost in my thoughts, for how will I reach on time and them what things need to be done before I go for work and so and so. Suddenly a lady said hello to me who was also filling gas tank opposite to me. She point towards Aaryana and ask me, is it my baby and I replied yes she is mine. Then she started telling me about her car seat installed wrong in my car. She requested me to fix it right away as it's not safe for baby. I said OK, I will check after I pull my car at the side. She didn't leave me there, she keep ranting about to do it right now and offered me help and I said OK. I pull my car at side and so as she, and then she helped me fixing car seat and teach me how to do it too. I was so shocked that Aaryana car seat was really not installed properly. and most of the time I moved her car seat from one car to another or for some other reason and in all that I didn't fix it properly back. That lady installed it so well that it can't be moved inch in car. I am so great full to her, as I know, many people don't bother to say so or point out, if something is wrong like this. But I realize, nothing comes first than safety. I thanks her frequently for pointing me out and helping me fixing car seat. I asked her name and She was Ingred, and she works volunteers at St. John Ambulance Center, where they help people for installing car seat and Train them for First Aid. If anyone looking to installed car seat for free of charge, please call them and make appointment. 

She really helped me and open my eyes how to help people, no matter if you know them or not. We always know our duty towards people around us, towards community and to ourselves as well, but it just that in today's busy life we ignore it. I am great full and thank full to you Ingred and thanks for reminding me that I am one of you and can help people around me. God Bless.
