Humbled
I had a very humbling experience today. I had to go to the dmv this morning and thankfully I had an appointment because there was a line out into the parking lot and I heard people saying that they had been there for over an hour. I checked in and got my number and sat down. About 10 minutes later a couple came in, she in a wheel chair with only one leg, he carrying a white cane, blind and pushing her wheelchair and she was guiding him. There was an empty seat next to me and when they rolled in front of me she asked him if he wanted to sit down, yes, and she verbally guided him to the seat at which time I kinda told him where the chair was and kinda guided him. After he was seated she wheeled over to the wall to get out of the aisle. This humbled me to the bone and has stayed with me throughout the day. I have two good legs and my sight for which I am so very very grateful. Just when I was going to get pissy because I had an appointment had was made to wait, this couple came in. I sat quietly and waited my turn.

I hope they weren't getting driving licences...ID cards, maybe?
