Kudos to citizens for kind help

About a month ago I got off the bus downtown and had turned the corner by the back of City Hall and I proceeded to cross the street. When I got to the other side of the street, somehow I tripped and fell to the ground.

Within seconds there stood three people who tried to get me up to my feet. They got me on my feet and watched me continue on my way until I got to the park.

I would like to thank those people for their kindness to me from the bottom of my heart and also add may the good Lord watch over you for the rest of your lives for caring for others.
