If my power steering went out last night but it's working today, what could the problem be? Is it a warning, or does it need fluid?

What is your question?

Last night my power steering stop working and it was difficult for me to drive home. This morning I started my car to see if it would steer and it was as though I had no problem at all. Could it be I just need fluid, or is it warning me the pump is going bad?
