I must have a aurora that says "old ladies speak to me", because at Caulfield this old Vietnamese lady gave me her phone, and I'm guessing her son maybe or someone close to her told me "can you please help her get to Springvale". So I'm like showing her my phone of terrible Google translate Vietnamese trying to help her. Luckily I was going past Springvale so I helped her and she got off. I did my best.

Aww I hope karma decides to reward you.

You must seem like a very approachable person or have a natural aura.

Possibly. Like I'd feel rude if I didn't say anything to to the woman from this morning and the Vietnamese woman. But yeah I hope I get some karma, not that I did it for the karma.

Of course. You didn’t do it for karma or for gain.

You’re a good natured person and it shows.
