New Friend

For me being kind, or kindness is about the same as breathing.  I really don't have
to ~think~ about IT.   My family says.... Ohhh She's never met a stranger.  

I will have to say though, it comes down to treating folks the way I would like
to be treated.   Maybe it's my open nature, but people will just talk to me or tell
me things...  Take yesterday for instance, I was in a Walmart, there was a lady with what clearly appeared like 2 granddaughters, ages maybe 10 and 12.  We were in the area, near the sweet snacks... LIKE LITTLE DEBBIES.   :)   The girls were saying...  "PLEASE... PLEASE" ... I SMILED at the grandma... she said the girls were from out of town and visiting, and they don't have snacks like this. 

EVEN though, I pretty much KNEW... I said... "Are they military kids" ?
The grandma responded, "Yes, they are visiting from Germany".   I said....
"Is someone in the Air Force" ?   YES, her son-in-law.   I did not have a post card
of my Soldier and Angel with me, so we exchanged cell numbers and I sent Pam
one via a text.  What a wonderful meeting.
