Rainy Days and Tuesdays...

Well, summer's officially gone and today was so gloomy and rainy that I truly felt suicidal. Shuffled into a coffee shop and was seated next to a young man in wheelchair who was smiling, laughing and talking in an animated fashion to a friend. I stopped and said to myself "Here I am, all suicidal because of a little rain. This guy can't even walk and here he is enjoying himself. It made my problems seem so insignificant--here he was making the best of a terrible, life-long situation and I had been moping around all damn day because of a little inclement weather! " Out of gratitude for the valuable lesson he'd taught me I returned his wallet without him ever seeing me take it. Skipping gleefully, I ran out out on my check braving the torrential downpour with his umbrella and a cheery smile!
