Random acts of kindness go a long way in today’s society. Along the Vine Street expressway, one act of kindness cost a man his life earlier this week.
Last Monday, a motorist stopped to help a disabled man stuck in an outer lane. Joseph Kelly traveled three lanes of traffic and wheeled the disabled man to safety when a truck slammed into both men, killing them instantly.
When two college sophomores were asked if they engaged in random acts of kindness, each said yes.
Collin Commiskey recalled, “I just opened a door.” He held the door for an elder with a bad leg. “I never knew him personally, just saw him at Church once or twice.” Sophomore Mike Chavones had a different story. “Whenever I see cars stranded on the side of the road, I always stop and help.” These sophomores would like to believe that if they saw someone in need, they would try their best to help.
In any case, college students should be careful while driving. They should aware of their surroundings at all times while making well thought out decisions. The popular “spur of the moment” instinct could cost a student their life out their life.
