These are spontaneous acts of kindness. The other day I saw old lady sitting down on the sideway waiting for the bus. It was raining and she was soaking wet. The bust station didn't have the bench and roof cover. I stopped and offered to drive her home. She accepted. I never plan these actions but I react with my instinct when I see people in the need of assistance.
