Being too Defensive

Today, while waiting to cross an intersection, a stranger came up to me on the street and asked me, "Do you have a smartphone?!"
He looked really frantic and he was panting like he just finished a long run.  Taken off guard, I quickly said no and turned the other way.  The guy then asked another girl beside me the same question.  She was nice enough to say yes and it turned out the guy just wanted directions.
The guy thanked her before we crossed the road.

Sometimes I regret being too defensive, especially today when I saw how nice that other girl was to the guy.  Next time I'll definitely try being friendlier to people.

Anyway, here's a photo of Orion I took from my window.
