And I'm thrilled that another person out there is going to receive a pair of mitts and a hat this season.<br /><br />Just this afternoon, as I was out and about, I stopped at an intersection where a man was waiting for cars to stop, in order to approach them for money. He was limping along, dragging a foot behind him. When I opened my window and held out some money, I commented that it must be a lot of hard work for him to walk back and forth like he was doing. His response was "wow, you've got that right lady. Thanks for noticing." His face lit up as soon as I spoke to him and we ended our brief exchange by wishing each other a good Christmas. It was a short, lovely moment.<br /><br />Blessings, Kristin!<br /><br />RuthHi from Ruth!https://www.blogger.com/profile/04696686601621200587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2528470033811673980.post-73770792453651939632010-12-16T13:41:43.366-06:002010-12-16T13:41:43.366-06:00LOVE this post Ruth. Thanks for the reminder to s...LOVE this post Ruth. Thanks for the reminder to slow down at times and think about those less fortunate around us. I too try to smile and make eye contact with people asking for money on the street, because it costs nothing to give someone a little dignity. I'm going to make it my goal to put extra mitts and a hat in my car and find someone to give them away to in the next few weeks. Thanks for the story. I love how you make us think!Kristinnoreply@blogger.com
