As I was in the Safeway parking lot today, I watched this
older couple, probably late sixties or early seventies, grab a cart and walk
towards the front door. Seems like a normal day right? It was, which is why it
made me smile.
As the gentleman was walking with the cart, he gleefully
pushed off hard and stepped onto the bars to go for a ride. I remember doing this
as a kid whenever my mom wasn’t looking. I think that was the best part; that I
was doing something exhilarating that I wasn’t supposed to do.
I haven’t done that in years. But that man was having SUCH a
fabulous time. He didn't care that it was childish, he didn't care that people
saw him. He was simply having a good time.
I want to hold on to this memory. This man reminded me to
have fun, regardless of age and audience.
Thank you, unknown man. You brightened my day.
