As Lu and I were leaving Franco's last night, there was a couple sitting at the entrance waiting on a to go order. The man was sitting with not expression at all on his face. He was an older gentleman dressed in overalls. I was searching my pockets and purse for my keys. I said man I have way too many pockets and way too much stuff and smiled at them. The man's face just lit up and we all laughed. His whole countenance changed.... Sometimes I wonder how long its been since folks have even been noticed much less spoken too. I was being silly, I know, but to see the smile light up his face made me happy. It only takes a little effort to make eye contact and smile at someone. I've seen it work time and time again. I think I'm going to try and make a habit of it. If you know me very well at all you know I struggle with being bashful. Well, I'm done with that. With the Lord's help I'm gonna make it a goal to start speaking to more people.
We need each other. I always tell my church family at Silverado Cowboy Church that I come there for selfish reasons....to get hugs. I need them, I think we all do. We need to have a place to call home.
Y'all know I love ya!!
