This morning on my way to work there was a diversion which lead down a single track back road. I had a car in front. It was frosty and the sun was low behind us. Then there was a lorry coming in the other direction. We hardly had anywhere to go. The car in front pulled into an opening on the side. I couldn\u2019t quite get in so I figured I\u2019d have to reverse up and pull up the bank. I checked my mirrors. I couldn\u2019t see anything. Started to reverse and after moving maybe 3\u2019 I hit something. I checked my mirrors again and couldn\u2019t see anything. I jumped out. There was a woman in a car, a car narrower than my van, right behind me in my blind spot. I told her I\u2019d pull over once the lorry had passed. \u00a0So I did. She got out almost in tears. She\u2019s American and said how England has been so hard on her and asked for a hug so I gave her one. I told her things will get better. My van has no damage and her car just has a piece of plastic that\u2019s popped out. \u00a0I chatted with her and said how things can seem really bad but that they will change. I explained how I couldn\u2019t see her in my mirrors. \u00a0 We had to move so drive down the road to give our details etc. I told her that it\u2019ll be ok and to go get it looked at and that I\u2019ll pay for it to be fixed. She\u2019s just bought the car and is struggling in life. She was amazed at my kindness and my help. She shouldn\u2019t of been so close but shit happens and it seems like she\u2019s had more than her fair share of it. I\u2019m hoping that by paying for her car to be fixed her luck changes. I know we create our own luck but sometimes when something good seems to happen it changes our perspective and starts setting us up for good things. I think I\u2019ve helped her in more ways than one. \u00a0I\u2019m glad I could.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
