So I was just in a situation where I ran across a stranger who seemed to struggle with psychiatric illness, who was lost and going through a stress attack. I didn't want to abandon him, but getting a clear idea of what was happening and the best step to take was difficult. I managed to help him get on the correct bus to get him home. As worried as I still am for him, it also felt really good to be able to help. I am so glad I didn't abandon the poor guy. It got me wondering, who else has that kind of memory they can look back on and know they were able to make a difference?
