A construction worker showed great concern and unexpected kindness after a child had a nasty bike wreck.
Children are supposed to be outside enjoying the great outdoors, having fun, exploring with their friends, and engaging in some much-needed physical activity. Phones, tablets, and other devices with screens consume too much of our time, including children's. Putting the screens down and spending more time outside, away from those devices, would do us all some good.
One of the most common ways for children to experience the outdoors is by riding a bike. It's a great way to exercise and a relatively quick method of getting from Point A to Point B. Plus, riding bikes is just a lot of fun.
In a clip posted on social media, a young man and his buddies were outside, riding their bikes together, when he rode past a construction site. The construction workers were working on the lane next to them when the young man took a tumble and fell. From the video, the crash looks pretty bad. It wouldn't have been surprising if the young man had come away from the wreck with an injury or two.
After the young man falls to the ground, one of the construction workers immediately rushes over to him. The kind city worker picks up the little guy's bike and then proceeds to help the young man to his feet.
But the construction worker's kindness did not stop there. He dusted off the boy's bike, made sure it still operated properly, and even cleaned off the young man's hands.
Soon after, the group of youngsters was back on their way. Right before the clip ends, the construction worker lightly and friendly pats one of the children on the helmet as the kids ride past him.
It doesn't take much to be kind to someone else, but it can significantly impact the person receiving the action or one witnessing the move.

Ephesians 4:32: "And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you."
