Good Morning and Welcome to Thursday the 11th day of January, 2018.
Another cold BLAST today and tomorrow and warming up on the weekend.
Yesterday while I was waiting for the bus another bus stopped.
Someone on the bus was waving madly at me.
I could not see the person at first as my glasses were frosted over.
Then I saw her, it was my friend who previously had stopped in her car at the stop or close by and given me a ride home.
She parks away from downtown so catches the bus to her car.
So I was lucky and received a ride home.
Much appreciate in this weather.
We even stopped at the grocery store – we were out of bananas and that is almost a tragedy for this household.
I am most grateful for the ride home from my friend.
The night before I waited in the minus thirty temperatures for just over 15 minutes for the bus.
Last night I was thinking after I laid down for bed about my day.
This is when I take a look at my day and if I did well, I am pleased with myself and if not, then there is always room to correct the behaviour.
Sometimes in the moment we are quick to judge.
I have found that life is more grey than black & white.
This is something that I am always working on, and that is not to be too quick to judge.
Not that I judge every single soul that I come across in the course of a day, I am not saying that.
But we all have ideas, preconceived notions in our heads that stay with us.
I am working on those.
Some need working on and others are fine the way that they are ….
So that is today.
Be easy on ourselves and be easy on others.
We never know what their last conversation was or last thought before our encounter.
So think hard, long and softly before speaking too quickly.
Time to leave to catch the bus.
Time to don the layers.
Have to be warm.
Minus 30 something with the windchill.
Special Hello to: my friends
Always, Carol & Alvin
