Try a little kindness
This is just too rich not to share
Something really bizarre and wonderful just happened to me.
There was a loud knock upon my door. I figured it was Timothy wanting to beg a beer.
I got up and looked out the peep hole. Wasn’t Tim. It was a lady riding one of those golf-carts for invalids.
I opened the door. Hanging from my door knob was a Walmart bag. Lady glanced at it, said, “I deliver food here; it is bread and ham.”
I was so shocked that I blurted out, “God Bless You.” (Me, the Atheist) But it seemed apropos for the situation.
There are still good people in this world.
I hope I am one of them
(I feel blessed, though I probably do not deserve it)
Try a little kindness; it does a body good.
I ask for nothing from no one, because I am an asshole. I do not put up with bullshit in my life.
Ever
But when someone is unsolicited nice to me, it moves me and touches my heart. And I am grateful and honoured to be sharing their air.
Never forget: We are all in this Game Together
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
We are Humanity
That is Our Fatal Flaw
And our Blessing
Thank you John for your thoughtful comment.
When I was young. Poor mother had a low paying job. Once a week, a friend of my sister aunt would bring a bag of food over on Friday. I never forgot. When I returned from the Army in 1977. I wanted to repay her. She wouldn’t accept anything from me. She told me. Give away what you can and I am proud of her. She taught me. There are kind and good people in our world. Hello my friend. I liked your story. Make me remember the kind woman.
