Smile at your brother 2 years ago

I smiled at my neighbors tonight and ended up having the nicest chat with them. Betty and Sy—they must be in their 80s. They used to ride their bicycles daily, slowly pedaling down the street with their three-speed wheelers. I noticed recently that I haven’t seen them and hoped they were okay.

It turns out Sy had hip replacement surgery a few months ago and he’s just getting out and about. He looks great—and they are absolutely sweet.

I’m so glad I smiled at them and said hello!



Good thing I'm not a man 4 years ago

Smiling at strangers is harder than you’d think. Which are the wierdos? Don’t smile at them. Who’s going to think you’re hitting on them? Don’t smile at them. Who’s going to think YOU’RE the wierdo? Don’t smile at them. And then there’s the ones who don’t smile back, but give you a sneer….
