Happy New year ! Wishing you all a happy 2024!
Story time to start the year! 👇🏾👇🏾
During my hot and fatiguing run on Saturday, I briefly stopped at Woodman’s Point to take a photo. While there, I noticed an old lady struggling to pull a heavy cart along the sand dunes onto the footpath. Initially, I didn’t think much of it, as I was focused on finishing my run. However, my second reaction kicked in, prompting me to help her push the cart to an easier terrain and up the hill.
I ran over and pushed to her , she giggled and said “ I thought I became super strong all of a sudden” she then continued to say “ what a gentleman”.
Shortly afterwards, I pressed resume on my Garmin and continued my run.
You might be thinking - Ivan’s boasting about his good deed. I’m not boasting; my initial inclination was to finish my run, but the experience highlighted the opportunity to be kind to others. Wherever you may be!
What I’m trying to say is there is always opportunity to be kind to others. She was with her grandkids, I hope her grandkids witnessed the gesture and pass it on.
