To the woman who stopped my mother and I on Inglis to ask if she could borrow a cell phone: I'm sorry. After an awkward pause, I said that we were in a hurry, and we kept walking. We weren't in that much of a hurry. I don't know why we didn't say yes. We regretted it almost immediately. I realize we made the world a slightly less trusting, less awesome place by refusing. I can't fix that mistake, but I'm determined to spread as much love and awesome in the world as I can today in atonement. —Bad Karma
