Route 15 bus heading downtown. It was packed and an older woman got on with heavy bags. You immediately stood up, helped her sit down, and held her bags in your lap for the whole ride. Small acts like that restore my faith in people.
I was walking home from work looking exhausted and this kid in a dinosaur costume ran up to me and put a full-size Snickers in my hand and said you look like you need this. Kid's parents you are raising a wonderful human.
You sat down at the public piano in Union Station and played Clair de Lune so beautifully that people stopped in their tracks. Commuters were actually crying. Thank you for that three minutes of magic.
It was freezing at Red Rocks and I was clearly underdressed. You took off your denim jacket and insisted I keep it. You said the music would keep you warm. I still have it and I'd love to return it.
