She used a rollator to show kindness to her neighbor

Life, at its core, has always been all about kindness. A warm smile when we feel like our world has shattered into a million pieces, a helping hand when we feel like there is no way out, a word of comfort in a moment of doubt — these things, thought they may seem small, have the power to change someone’s world forever and leave a lasting impact.

At around 5 o’clock, I noticed my elderly neighbor who lives a couple of blocks away, Miss Inez. She was moving slowly using her rollator. On both sides of the handles, two big grocery bags were swaying. One of them contained canned foods and a loaf of bread, and in the other one there was something warm wrapped in a towel.

Elderly woman used a rollator to show kindness to her neighbor six blocks away.

I approached her and asked her if she needed help. Miss Inez looked at me and said, “Well, I am just bringing some warm food to the Mitchell boy. His mom’s unwell, and he’s been by himself the past three nights.”

I was stunned — this elderly woman could barely move or take care of herself, yet there she was, helping another person in need.

For someone her age, six blocks wasn’t a short distance, but she was determined to get to the boy’s house.

Of course, I accompanied her and helped her with the bags, and that’s when I noticed a note taped to the top of the container with the homemade soup, “You are important.”

When the boy opened the door, I could see he was visibly weak. He took the bags and thanked Miss Inez for her kind deed.

Soon, the word of the kindness of this sweet elderly neighbor spread around and everyone wanted to be part of the story that united the entire neighborhood.

People helped the boy, and they also helped Miss Inez with her errands and everyday tasks.

I guess it’s true when they say that even the tiniest act of kindness can go a long way.
