time to reevaluate

So I went to an interview in the Fillmore today, on my way home it was pouring rain. I was almost home (about 6 blocks away) when i passed an old lady in a wheel chair with a bunch of bags sitting on the corner. She put out her hand to get my attention and she said "if you push me up the hill to that yellow building I'll give you money for the bus" I looked up the hill in the opposite direction and saw the yellow building and responded, "I don't need money for the bus I'm almost home" and walked away. I got about 2 blocks and felt terrible, I was pretty sure the woman was homeless, but I turned around and went back where she was still asking people to push her up the hill. I touched her shoulder and said "I'm sorry, that was rude, let me push you up the hill" and she responded with a "thank you, I'll give you some money", and I told her I didn't want any money. I pushed the woman the 3 blocks up the hill to the yellow building, which turned out to be a retirement home. Apparently the woman had left by herself and had been unable to get home because she couldn't push herself up the hill. The woman tried to give me money again and I told her I didn't want it, and pushed her in through the doors. She said thank you, and God bless and I left and finished walking home. Maybe I should feel good because I went back and helped her up the hill, but I still feel terrible. What kind of person am I if I'm willing to let an old lady in a wheel chair sit on the corner in the pouring rain? What kind of person am I if my first response isn't to help someone? The woman wasn't asking for money like all the bums on the street, she just needed help up a hill, and I still ignored her. I think I need to reevaluate some things if I'm the type of person who can ignore a person in need. My heart is still hurting, I'm glad I went back to help the woman because who knows how many people would have ignored her just like me.
