Simple things that people do and which, unintentionally and positively affects other people is one of the things that I can't stop admiring.

I go for a walk and something on the floor catches my eye. I gradually figure out what it is. The store implanted the covers of coca cola bottle in the cement of the platform, to write its name, a welcome and a little smiley face.
It was a very simple publicity, yet, because it got my attention, it was able to give me a moment away from all the concerns and the worries, and it made me smile.

Somehow I felt that it was on the floor for the ones who walk looking down…the ones who are upset or have the head loaded with many things that they can't enjoy walking and watching the people and the cars.

Or the day I was going to get some stuff, and before I turn on the engine, a lady, who has just parked looks at and says:" don't take the main road, it is blocked, I was stuck there for over an hour"
She was a stranger, she didn't know me, yet she was human enough to warn me.


Or when I was coming out of a parking and I saw a lady with a little boy trying to cross so i stopped, but the boy, who was still afraid wouldn't walk, so the guard came to stop right in front of my car so the boy can be sure that I won't move, and he smiles to the boy who safely crosses and turns to thank me for waiting.
Or the day I was stuck in the rush hour listening to a wonderful soundtrack that someone once recommended, it was my one companion that helped me through the way.

Simple things that people do, and which unintentionally and positively affects other people make my believe in human beings get stronger.
