Being disabled I use one of those electric carts to do my groceries. On
Thursday, like many times before, a nice person offered to help me load the groceries in to my car in the parking lot. I guess she saw me
with e-cart and trying to load the groceries in the back seat and wanted to help. Many times before, I would decline the offers for help. Then I realized that by refusing someones offer to help I was sort of being rude. Out of my own pride and suspicion from the jaded atmosphere of the Miami city scam world, I would so no. I felt that if I accepted I was being helpless. But recently I have found that people are trying to genuinely help, especially in this area, for now anyway, from the bottom of their hearts. So I have decided to accept those kind offers for help in reaching for something, putting the groceries on the cash register area, etc. anytime that a person offers their kind offer to help me. Needless to say it was a good feeling after I was
helped the kind person chatted with me some small talk and went on their way. Like I said little things are always there that keep you going.
That is so true, be thankful for kind people that want to help, and learn to accept it. It is tough when you want to be independent.
