Sometimes People Surprise You

I am working a temporary assignment (yay, a paycheck) that requires me to take the lightrail here in Denver. The other day I had missed my usual train home and the train I took was very crowded. I thought OK looks like were standing for 6 stops...when I hear "miss, would you like my seat?" I say thank you and turn around to see who was offering. It was a 20-something guy, with baggy pants, a giant flannel shirt and a skullcap...the least likely person to offer me a seat just did. It was funny because the day before I was saying to someone, "I think I am losing faith in humanity, I am getting too jaded...." It just goes to show, sometimes things happen for a reason. It still surprises me as I think about it.
