David, a loyal UBFM member, shared this. This took place on
the downtown route, Wednesday, August 27, 2014.
Last night the downtown
group had 2 new riders, Dana and Monica. We were on the Mall downtown, regular
stuff, they jumped right in, nothing spectacular. At one stop, I was tending to
someone and just happened to turn and see an amazing show of humanity. A guy
I'd never seen before, in a wheelchair, apparently a quadriplegic, was behind
me and there stood Dana feeding (actually holding the burrito to his mouth so
he could eat) this total stranger, someone she knew nothing about, on her very
first UBFM ride! It blew me away! I looked at Lyle, he had taken a pic or 2.
Hopefully he'll send me the pic and I will share. We (me anyway) all just stood
there in amazement as she finished up. And we shoved off to share more hope 'n
happy. I don't know if anyone else there saw it the way I did, but wow! As I
shared this with another UBFMer when we were done, I was almost brought to
tears. I have a challenge; find someone soon that you can share a random act of
humanity with!
Peace
