This morning I came across an elderly gentleman in a wheel chair pushing himself forward, rotating one wheel with his right arm and pulling with his right leg, so as to go straight forward. Watching this as I made my way to where he was, I spent some time thinking about how useful vectors are.

I of course asked if he needed any help once I caught up to him. I figured he was going to the care center a quarter of a mile ahead. He said that he was good. To which I replied, are you sure? He thanked me for offering but again refused and told me to have a nice day. I continued my walk to school thinking about life and the inevitable. Particularly how different people approach it.
