Sometimes it's just nice to see someone smile

 Tomorrow is my friend at works B day. To be honest I never thought I would wind up being friends with her, she's nutty & by nutty I mean nuttier than me. It turns out she is super caring & loving & just a good person. So I got her a candle & a card because I won't be in the office tomorrow &  I didn't want to miss her day.  She hugged me & said I love you. It was just nice to make her smile because she has alot of personal stuff going on right now.

 Last week I was in training & there is an older guy in there that just talks about his dead wife all the time. At first I felt like I wanted to roll my eyes, but once I started talking to him I realized he's just lonely. He lives by himself in a big Victorian house & he's almost 70 but still has to work to make ends meet. He's a history buff & said he would love to volunteer at a museum as a tour guide. On the last day of training I said hey George it was nice to meet you, have a good weekend. He smiled.

I realized driving home it doesn't cost anything to be nice to someone. But it might make them feel like a million bucks.

It's not always easy believe me there are days I want to knock someone out, but I'm gonna try to be nice instead because it always makes me feel better to not sit in the negativity too.


For the friends I haven't met yet:

Your Song: Elton John
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
