Today is Monday, I was taking my walk around the Courthouse square as I usually do M-F. Every day I do this, I am getting more and more people saying hello and smiling. The people are so very friendly. I have run into two very special people. One was a lady, sitting on a park bench. She had her shoes off and was feeling the beautiful cool green grass. She was almost in amazement at the long lost feeling of being barefoot on the grass. As we talked she decided to walk with me for a bit. She had moved here several months ago and had not found a sense of place. My friend was a musician. When we left, we had talked about churches and how I absolutely loved mine. She took down the address and hopefully she will check it out. I hope she does.
Then there is Felix. Today as I walked I caught up with an elderly gentleman who was walking to the Dinner Bell restaurant. I have never met Felix but when I got next to me, he leaned over and said "I'm headed to the Dinner Bell, you wanna go with me?" I didn't know him but other people seemed to know him or say hi, he seemed by himself. So..........I walked with him to the Dinner Bell. I had a glass of water and visited with Felix as he ate his biscuits and gravy.
God you are blessing me with new people. I may only meet them once but you are leaving an impression. Thank you for the opportunity to just say Hi!
