We're all part of the HUMAN race, for heaven's sakes. The whole concept of "enemies" has always made me crazy. I've been very lucky in the past couple of months to make the acquaintance of Martha, a woman in her mid to late '70's. I recognized her walking in Old Town Pasadena and offered her a lift to where she was going. She was surprised and grateful, and I found her to be quite delightful. She's a retired insurance adjuster, never married, no family left, living on S.S. in subsidized housing with a positive outlook on life. But kinda lonely. We have exchanged phone numbers and e-mail addresses, and it's no skin off my nose to pick her up occasionally to do errands or go out for tea which she loves. Feels like I'm getting it paid forward to ME! If I've made her life a bit more cheery, she's very much enriched mine.
You grocery angels are AWESOME!! That is so immediate and beneficial.
