An Ordinary Day with An Extraordionary Experience
A few days ago, I was carrying two bags of groceries while I was walking back home from the bus stop. It’s about half a mile of walk. Almost a block away from my home, I saw my neighbor. My neighbor was an elderly man. I knew him because I used to chat with him while we walked our dogs. He was always so gentle and kind. After asked me how far I needed to walk, he told me that he was going back home to get his car and offered me a ride home. At that moment, my heart was so touched, warmed, and squeezed by a big hug emotionally from his kindness. I felt vulnerable and loved. This was such a simple connection with spontaneously.
