Dear strangers, I remember you.
Ten months ago, when my cellphone rang, you were walking into Whole Foods, prepared to go about your food shop But I had already abandoned my cart full of groceries and I stood in the entryway of the store. My brother was telling me my father was dead. And as we hung up the phone, I started to cry and scream as my whole body trembled.
Overwhelmed with emotions, I fell to the floor. and you, kind strangers, you were there You could have kept on walking, ignoring my cries, but you didn’t. You could have simply stopped and stared at my primal (原始的) display: of pain, but you didn’t. Instead you surrounded me as I yelled through my sobs.
I remember in that haze (阴霾) of emotions, one of you asked for my phone and asked who you should call. I remember that I could hear your words as you tried to reach my husband for me, leaving an urgent message on his answering machine for him to call me.
I recall hearing you discuss among yourselves who would drive me home in my car and who would follow that person to bring him back to the store. You didn’t know one another, but it didn’t seem to matter. You encouraged me, a stranger, in the worst moment of my life and you gathered around me with common purpose, to help.
I told you that I had a friend, Pam, who worked at Whole Foods and one of you went in search of her and thankfully, she was there that morning and you brought her to me. I remember the relief I felt at seeing her face familiar and warm. She confronted and cared for me so lovingly until my husband could get to me.
