To an old lady I hurt, it has been two years since our encounter and I owe you an apology. I lied to you during that time. I still remember clearly that you asked for a ride outside the store, you said your husband passed away and you were not able to drive home. I lied to you, I said I had an appointment and I could not give you a ride home because I didn’t have time to do that. Actually I didn’t have time that morning, I was just being too careful and selfish. I worried about my safety giving a stranger a ride, but I knew you were just an innocent old lady, and I was just too selfish to help a stranger. I think I hurt you a lot, I don’t know if you got someone to drive you home, I hope you did. And I’m so sorry for being selfish that morning. The woman You Met
