community!! care!!!! it's already here!!
#community!!#one time i was on the bus after grocery shopping#and spilled some things from my bag#a man a couple rows up held out the cans and they were passed back to me#another time#a young mother put her nearly-toddler-but-still-a-baby kiddo on the wheelhub in the front while she dug in her purse#to pay the fare#and we went over a bump#the baby tilted forward#and i swear to you the entire bus#in tandem#leaned forward as though to catch the baby#the man in the designated-for-disabled-and-elderly seat was all ready to catch the the bebe too#he was the first line of defense#the baby woulda fallen in his lap had the bus driver not waved off the woman once she saw what was up#he was first line of defense and he was READY#i was one of three people nearby who were a split second from sprinting to Catch Baby#you would thought that bus was full of olympic sprinters#ultimately#baby was safe (giggly)#and when someone else's groceries rolled away from them i returned the favor#different bus line different year#but there is absolutely a camaraderie among regulars#so this is a nice thing#and one i am more than happy to repost
