Pass It On...
by Glenn H. Kipps
The bus was full... every seat filled. The Destination was New York City. It was time to leave. A young man leaped into the bus and appeared confused and alarmed. He had a decided accent - British. He was holding money and reached out to the driver.
As the driver explained that the bus was full and it was time to leave Authentic Wayne Gallman Jersey , the young man became more distressed. He said he had traveled from England to see his young son, who was seriously injured in an automobile accident while visiting America with his mother. They were waiting in one of the small towns in Northeastern Pennsylvania on the way to New York
The Driver continued to explain that the bus was full and he would have to wait the four hours for the next one. Visibly distressed, the young man explained that such a wait might be to late, since his son's injuries were life threatening.
An elderly passenger stood and walked toward the front of the bus, her ticket in her hand. She handed it to the young man, who was surprised and relieved. He tried to give her the cash he had offered the driver Authentic Davis Webb Jersey , but she smiled as she left the bus, shook her head, and told him to "pass it on." The young man nodded. His quick smile indicated that he knew what she meant and would surely help another in trouble if the need arose.
Crises like this do not always arise on bus trips, but when they do they show us what America's travelers are like. Many similar tales are told as we travel across our country and around the world. We are a country of "helpers" and do not hesitate to reach out to those in need. Opportunities arise every day on buses, trains and planes.
Traveling by car with family and friends has its rewards, also Authentic Dalvin Tomlinson Jersey , but there is nothing quite like reaching out to strangers as we "take care of each other" in our travels.
Other experiences bring people together who never would have met otherwise. Sometimes it is just a one-time conversation, like the one between a young reporter, forced to sit in "First Class" because of his height, who met the "giant" newspaper publisher, Randolph Hearst. The advice he received from this icon during that two-hour flight played a big role in his success as a newspaper columnist... and was the motivating factor in his "passing it on" to young reporter "wannabes" through school visits and other appearances..
It would not be difficult to find reports of travel encounters that led to marriage, business partnerships Authentic Evan Engram Jersey , and just plain lasting friendships. So, although traveling by car is sometimes necessary, one should consider the rewards that can come from experiences while traveling with the masses, which can last a lifetime.
Take the bus, Gus...

TIANJIN Authentic Will Hernandez Jersey , Aug. 31 (Xinhua) -- After his third National Games victory in seven competitions on Wednesday, veteran shooter Tan Zongliang feels a hunger growing inside him to compete for the ultimate medal at Tokyo 2020.
It was a magic week. The Five-time Olympian from Shandong, who will be 46 years old in two months, only placed fifth in the men's 50m pistol on Monday.
"I'm lucky to make fifth place as I'm nearly 46 years old. Shooting, however, is and will be my life pursuit Authentic Saquon Barkley Jersey ," said Tan, the runner-up in the men's slow fire pistol at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
It was his seventh edition of the quadrennial multi-sport event since 1993, dubbed China's mini-Olympics, after reaping two gold medals each from the 7th and 10th Games.
Still No.5 in the qualifiers, Tan fired a quite low 8.7-point shot at the beginning, but managed to rule the final of the men's 10m air pistol after ten shots with 242.3 points on Wednesday Kyle Lauletta Jersey , with a score 2.2 points over that of the silver medalist.
Tortured by neck pain for a long time, Tan received treatment from mid June to late July, which meant he had little training for the event. He attributes his success to having peace of mind.
"It was a perfect match! The gold was unexpected but well-deserved, because I did focus on every shot without any thoughts of the result," said the veteran while filled with excitement. "It's an honor to make the final for a shooter, especially for an older shooter."
Wang Yifu B.J. Hill Jersey , former coach of Chinese national shooting squad, who attended six National Games as an athlete, once said that Tan's weakness was his hyper-focus on medals despite his perfect technique.
Tan's score also surpassed the world record of 241.6 points, set by Christian Reitz of Germany on March 10, 2017 at the European Shooting Championship in Maribor, Slovenia.
"I have never dared to think about another gold except in my dreams Lorenzo Carter Jersey ," said Tan with a huge smile, adding that he was proud of himself for putting forth more effort.
"I am lucky, but I must say that the gold medal mainly came as a result of my inner strength," he added.
Tan has reaped three golds from the Chinese National Games since 1993. Tan ranked second at the 12th Games in the 10m air pistol event.
It is an interesting coincidence that Tan has seized a shooting gold medal every 12 years at the National Games. Twelve is a special number in China.
