It was a beautiful Friday afternoon and I was out for a short walk before
going back home. I was going to drop by the bookstore. On my way, about 200
meters from the bookstore, I noticed a jeep driver trying to park between a van
and a scooter. From the angle of the jeep, I knew that the driver was having
trouble.

As I walked past, I couldn‟t help but look at the driver. Unexpectedly, the
driver turned his head and looked at me with a pleading air. I didn‟t see any
parking attendants nearby, so I decided to help him. I stopped and started to direct
him. I said,“You can reverse some more, some more, some more. STOP! Now go
forward.” After a couple of moves back and forth, he could park his jeep quite
well. What a relief! The driver smiled at me and said thank you. I felt so happy
