A Great Start to 2009

This is my first entry of 2009, and I want to start it off with a positive note. As I pulled my car into the 24 Hour Fitness parking lot this morning, two elderly Thai-Chinese ladies stopped me to ask if I can speak Chinese. Of course I said yes, and they pointed out that they had locked their keys in their trunk and were here visiting from San Jose, so therefore had no access to anything. One of them was here visiting daughter who just had a baby. Naturally, I called AAA and had them come help them with this issue. After knowing that it could be up to thirty minutes before they would arrive, I proceeded to start my run in the gym and would come back out once AAA called. Not long after, they did come to the rescue. The two graciously nice ladies were extremely thankful that I was there and tried to offer me money for me help. I refused. In the end they finally did a formal introduction. As I left, they wished me the best of luck and hoped for God's blessing. I smiled as I walked back to the gym, knowing that this would be a wonderful start to 2009.
