Yes! There's such a person called "a Good Samaritan"

Last Friday on my way home, the lazy bug hit me.  I left my umbrella on my office table.  When I reached the ground floor of our office.....Viola!  it's raining cats and dogs.  Still so lazy of me to go back and get an umbrella, I opted to play hide and seek with the rain.  I was able to ride a jeepney, still a little bit dry and hoping that the rain will stop when I reach my destination.  But heavens gave me a big lesson.  When I alighted the jeepney along Quezon Ave., the rain was so strong.  I have no choice but to walk in the rain, hoping to catch another jeepney fast.

After 10 mins. of soaking in the rain, I'm now looking for a taxi since jeepneys are quite scarce.  Suddenly a man with an umbrella approached me.  Oh God!  please not a hold-up-er.  To my surprise he offered me an umbrella till I boarded a taxi.  For about 30 mins. he was holding the umbrella for me and waiting for me to get a cab. 

And I thought that there are no more Good Samaritans around....
