The lady in the black hoodie had a flat tire and was changing it herself. But she got stuck on the lug nuts. After a while with no progress, the men you also see in the photo pulled over and helped her.

There are more people willing to help than broadcasts would allow us to believe. Ruling systems have tried to monopolized assistance, and by it have crowded out a large number of decent people who’d jump at an opportunity to feel good about themselves.

There is a great difference in appreciation, gratitude and self-worth between individuals spawning their own goodness, and the operations of a goodness industry. The former generates new value in an almost-pure form; the latter compels people to pay for good acts they never see and play no part in.

Before going back to the hum-drum of the mundane world, consider how much satisfaction and warmth comes from situations like the one in this photo. Contrast that with do-gooder organizations… organizations funded with money forcibly removed from people… people who will never see it used.
