I was on my way to the grocery store yesterday with my empty cart.  When I got to the parking lot behind the store I suddenly got a severe pain with a sharp tingling sensation in the back of my thigh and couldn't stand on it for at least three minutes.  It hurt really bad for the rest of the day when I moved or stood on it for the rest of the day.  Before I got to the parking lot I was walking normally with no pain.  Now my whole thigh is numb.  I didn't fall or bump my leg.  It felt like I got shot but didn't.

     When I was limping into the store I asked one person to help but he didn't know what to do. I was scared.  Two other people stopped and asked me if I was Ok.  One woman said that she has had the same problem and the other guy on my way home told me to be careful and slow down.  Every try to push an overloaded grocery cart home barely being able to step on one leg with noone being able to help?  I made my teenage daughter, who acts like she doesn't have a care in the world, to pull the cart up the two flights of stairs when I got back because there's no way I'd be able to do it.

   Why do all of the people that stop to help others have the same things in common?  Have you ever seen a rich person, business person or a homeless person stop to help anyone out?  If they did, you'd have to pay them, if they stopped at all.
