"Map", Me, and a Stranger

One day I had to go to Blanchardstown, north part of Dublin (I live in south Dublin). In order to go there, I needed to take bus no.39 from Trinity College Dublin (TCD). While I was waiting for the bus, I checked its timetable once again to make sure that I didn't miss the bus. I had already printed it out so I had it in my hand. 

While I was looking at the timetable, somebody approached me. "Are you OK?", he asked me. At first, I didn't realize that he was talking to me, and then he asked me further, "What can I help you?". "Oh, I'm OK. I'm just checking the bus timetable.", I said to him when I realized that he was talking to me. "I thought you're holding a map and trying to figure out where to go.", he responded further. I smiled, "You're so kind. Thanks."

That small experience seemed like nothing, but to me it had put smile on my face. Making someone smile doesn't always need a big effort. Sometimes, something that is considered as nothing to some people could mean something to others. :)
