Zombie Shoes
Feeling like a zombie right about now.
It was a typical Saturday for me. Drag myself out of bed after a few hours of sleep and got ready for a long day of interacting with lots of people - children and adults - and doing it all with a smile.
Had the opportunity to speak with a woman regarding overcoming her fears of being involved in an upcoming challenge - someone that I wasn't expecting - it was encouraging to know that after we talked she seemed a little more at ease.
Then came what I think was my most favorite part of my day. One which took everything in me to not cry. The opportunity to show someone how truely special he is - how much he is loved. To watch the utter shock and loss for words overcome him - and know that what I was witnessing was a young man realizing how much he is loved. Makes me tear up now just thinking about it.
It's moments like those that make everything else that is going on - just fade away. Something which will help me sleep easy today. It's moments like these when you know you brought a moment of happiness or a moment of peace to someone's life - that give you that warm fuzzy feeling inside. I like that warm fuzzy feeling.
"If someone is too tired to give you a smile, leave one of your own, because no one needs a smile as much as those who have none to give"
