something i saw today made me happy
every tuesday i drop the kids off, then, along my route back home, there's always little groups of elderly people, dressed for walking. Standing, chatting, with their rucksacks on and obviously waiting to be picked up by a coach.
There is always a lady who appears older than the rest. She has a stick and a very bad stoop and can hardly look forward, as her head points down. Yet she is always there, smiling and seems so happy.
It always makes me happy and I want to stop the car and give her a hug!
I think about how much I moan about the odd ache and pain and how lazy I can be.
Good on her, I say!
