We all want that feeling of love
So walking through the store I will tend to always look at everyone. I do not what so ever do this to judge them but rather just to glance and give my simple smile as a hello or how are you. Every person I see always looks so stressed out and ready to kill the world. I always try to make eye contact with those types and smile and ask how they are doing or tell them good morning.
My children on the other hand are still learning that everyone is different. I can remember all the way back when my daughter now 5 almost 6 years old was around 2 1/2 years old and we took a trip to Walmart. It had been a long morning and I had some things to pick up at the store. Let me remind you my daughter is very out spoken for her age. Well we were in the check out line and the lady next to us was a bit over-weight and had a pear shaped body with the wider hips, so being my daughter she instantly yelled while giggling "Mommy that lady has a big butt". My face I know had to of turned as red as the apples That were in my grocery cart. I had to explain to her that everyone is different in their own special way and we have different body shapes. I felt so bad of course because the lady heard her. I took it upon myself to apologize to her for my daughters behavior. Thank god she was understanding and even chuckled at the remark from Annabella.
What I am getting at is everyone wants to feel warm and cozy inside despite this cruel world. A simple hello to a complete stranger may make their whole day. I don't know maybe you can call me an optimist. Lately I have been trying to see the positive in all the negative situations. I am the kind of person that will give you my last dollar even if I needed it more. I don't have a lot of things nor money but I sure am very giving despite the fact I always get screwed in the end.
Maybe if the world was filled with more kind people and everyone being thankful for what they have rather than complaining about what they don't have or what they want, they would see everything different also just like me. I been through hell and back with my life thus far but that has made me a strong person inside and out. I reflect on all the negativity i been through and feed of it for the positive things and where I am at now in my life.
So next time you are in a store smile at a complete stranger, tell the cashier she looks great, hold the door for the elderly, help someone put groceries in their car. Spread the love :)
Imagine what we all could do if we made it our goal to be positive and change someones life for the better.
Maybe the road to tomorrow wouldn't be so dark......
Maybe Monday wouldn't feel so gloomy...
You could turn someone's day around with a simple gesture.....
