These moments 😭 you're right in saying that life is SO cool!!! These are the moments that make me feel excited to be alive.

I love that you noticed that at the end! It's how I end every post because life IS endlessly cool, and people are endlessly interesting IF we actually engage with it and them.

Yes!!! It's right in front of us much of the time, we just have to choose to engage.

I had a gratifying conversation with the FedEx clerk today. We need such small pleasantries.

We really do. They're what make our days memorable and sweet

It’s incredible how moments that seem simple can turn into profound connections and experiences. Your story is a beautiful reminder that serving others can come with unexpected rewards, and sometimes a cold walk can lead to the warmest encounters. Life does have a funny way of surprising us.

Thanks for the comment, Barry. The "simple" moments really do mean the most, don't they, probably because we have no expectations for them.
