The other day, I pulled into a parking lot by a local store. Another driver and I approached an open spot at exactly the same time from opposite directions.

How many of us have had that experience? The other driver looks angrily, honks, won’t move, etc. All because of a proprietary feeling over a parking spot.

On this particular day, however, we both looked at each other and laughed – and the other driver promptly waved at me, backed up and took another spot.

I like this better.
