Sparky Garrett Baton Rouge, Louisiana Gratitude Kindness Refueled “This fellow has forever earned my gratitude, and reminded me to keep an eye out for a fellow human that could use a hand.” Filling up our gas tank is something that many can occasionally forget and can potentially leave us stranded at the most inconvenient times. In Sparky Garrett’s case, running out of fuel opened the door for a stranger to earn his gratitude for a lifetime. About two blocks away from his home in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Sparky’s motorcycle ran out of fuel. Now, he had a few options; phoning a few friends or reaching out to AAA. But an unexpected stranger presented an unexpected option. Before he could get his bike into the nearest parking space, a kind stranger pulled over and after learning Sparky’s predicament he drove home without hesitation, picked up his fuel can and returned to Sparky’s aid. He did more than pour some fuel in Sparky’s motorcycle; he infused gratitude in his heart. “Did he save my life?” Sparky said. “Would I have died lonely and abandoned in a cold gutter that night? No. But kindness does not have to only be about severe cases.” This fellow has forever earned my gratitude, andreminded me to keep an eye out for a fellow human thatcould use a hand.
