I was in Costco earlier and when I left, an older lady called out for me. She spoke intermediate English and she needed to call her son for help. So, we made the call after a few struggling in pressing correct phone number. I asked if I could call 911 since even though she looked alright, she might be a bit weaker by her weight and age. She said she was alright and thanked me.
Not really a major episode but after I left, I felt that I could be further help by offering her a bottle of water. It was a warmer day in my city.
We all regret something we could have done a bit better but when in the situation, I lose my mind mind and not to know what do do. We could argue that there was no need for anything else but I think paramitas are perfections. So, we have to be perfect. Also, I guess it is a practice of calmness and awareness. Therefore, I wrote this as my own reminder not because it was a major issue but because perfection needs to attend the small little details too.
