This morning I encountered a situation that I did not know how to handle and in hindsight I might have bungled it. Its been bothering me all morning so I wanted to see what others had to say.

Early this morning I took my dog out for a walk (no, this is NOT a dog poop thread!). It was pouring rain and had been doing so for a couple of hours. On my walk I encountered a woman walking in the rain who was not carrying an umbrella, not wearing a raincoat (she was only wearing a light t-shirt and shorts) and she was drenched to the bone. I waved and said "good morning" but she barely acknowledged me. Once I got home I got to thinking that this woman certaintly wasn't caught in a sudden downpour--it had been raining for hours. She was dressed inappropriately (for the weather). I started to wonder if she might have been lost or suffering from dementia. I questioned myself as to whether I should have tried to stop her and render assistance or perhaps called Neighborhood Watch. I found myself in quite a dilemna--should I have been proactive and tried to help and faced embarrassing myself if she turned out to be fine (no one likes to accused of not being "all there"), or should I have just minded my own business and hoped that she just enjoyed a brisk walk in the rain and that everything was OK?

I'm still left wondering what I should have done.
