Blind woman goes on a motorcycle ride

A friend of mine was riding this weekend when this happened

http://newyork.cbslocal.com/20...le-ride-bucket-list/

They stopped at a GoMart when an elderly blind lady asked if one of them would take her for a ride, as it was on her bucket list

He showed me the video on his phone Monday morning, by yesterday it was pretty much all over Facebook

I quit school in elementary because of recess.......too many games

"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Fantastic! Give her credit for asking and give the guy credit for fulfilling this bucket list item.

Just around the parking lot ?

I'd have gotten her out on the road for a few minutes...

They got her phone number, one of them is going back to take her on a proper ride.

I think she didn't have time that particular day.

That would be even cooler to get her a helmet and take her for a decent ride on a parkway.

Maybe a bit much.

Good stuff!

Always nice to see the good things that happen in the world around us everyday to offset the nonsense. Thanks for posting this.
