so,yesterday morning didnt start too great,long story short the buses in my area are in chaos and this resulted in a young couple (she is in a wheelchair) getting left behind in the bad weather to wait for another bus.so,throughout the morning i was thinking about his alot,and i had to tell myself honestly that if i could have helped in the situation as it was i would have.so i walked into town after work to meet my friends to go to our regular thurs lunchtime meeting.but one of them called me to say their bus was going to be half hour late aswell.the lady of the two had rang me for our usual weeekly chat last week and told me she had treated herslef to some choc truffles from our new £ shop in the town,and in her words they were cr£p! (lol,,she is lady of certain age and never swears,mad me laugh alot!) so i went and got her some from a fancy choclatiere.i went and did a bit of shopping and the shop i was in is halfway between the bus station and the church that we hold our meeting in,so when i came out i noticed their bus had come in,but decided insteat to go and sit on the church wall and watch the world go by (my friend George has taught me an awful lot about awareness lately).i noticed across the road there was an elderly couple and the lady seemed to be in a little distress,her husband had sat himself on the wall and was refusing to move,no matter how much she tried to cajole him! i wondered if i could help but didnt know how,it occured to me he maybe suffered from altzimers or some such illness.so,,,,,,i asked God.with that the lady made to walk away from her husband,so i crossed the street and asked her if she needed any help.she told me her husband was diabetic and having a "funny turn!" so we went over to him and i remembered what i had in my bag,the fancy chocolates! so we gave him 3 and when he started coming round a bit he said how nice they were! i said "only the best!" and we had a giggle.the lady then gave me a kiss on the cheek and said i was an angel.they asked if they could drive me home but i said i was meeting friends but thank you.so what a magic day i had,again! thank you God.  |

i find the more my life doesnt revolve around me....the more my eyes open to how i can be of use...instead of crowded thoughts about myself. it doesnt always end up another drunk.....but useful to others never the less.. |
