To the lady who I ran into as she was putting more change in my almost expired parking meter across from the Metro Centre last week, THANK YOU. I was just about to drive off, but I saw you add coins to the person behind me as well. I’ll never know why you decided to do that, but the idea that you would softens my heart. I paid it forward, by the way, and paid extra for two hours at Dal when I ran in for 10 minutes. I hope the person who found my spot after me was as appreciative as I was! —Metro Centre Meter Girl
