Teaching someone how to do something that will help them in life is a great act of kindness, and here’s a story where an elderly gentleman helped a young man do something that will benefit him the rest of his life.
An elderly husband and wife were waiting for a train in Atlanta. As they were looking around, they spotted a young man, and it appeared he was struggling to tie his tie.
Another man, named Redd Desmond Thomas, could see what was going on, so he captured the moment with his camera and THIS is what he posted on his Facebook page: “The young guy sitting down was struggling with his tie. The woman in the red coat noticed, and asked ‘Do you know how to tie it properly?’ The young guy said ‘No ma’am.’ She taps her husband and says ‘Come to this side [her right side; he was standing on her left side] and teach this young man how to tie his tie.”
The older gentleman moved without hesitation [almost a reflex response] and gave him a step-by-step tutorial; then – afterward – the elder gentleman watched the young gentleman repeat the steps and show him that he had it. I was some distance away (but close enough to hear the exchange), and got even closer to snap this candid photo of the tutorial in progress before hopping on the train. I LOVE THIS!”
