flowers

Something just made my entire day/week. Watching tv, I decided it would be a good night to go pick up a movie. I was about a half block away from my house, and in the little door frame of the wig shop was this big black man, talking on his cell phone, holding about 5 bunches of flowers. Just as I was about 5 feet away, one of the flower bunches fell, so I went down to scoop it up, because he obviously couldn't with the cell phone in one hand. And as I tried to hand it back to him, he said, "No, you keep it honey." I tried to reject the offer as nicely as I could; I didn't want to take his flowers, but he insisted, and I walked away with a bundle of flowers and a huge smile on my face.

I've always depended on the kindness of strangers.
Too bad I don't own that movie, or else I'd watch it right now.
