Life is So Strange, Sometimes..

While there is no doubt that it is hard, life can sometimes show you different aspects of it you might not be expecting.
Take for instance the odd occurrence that recently happened to me. As I was sitting out at my spot on the lovely "plains" at Federal and 53rd streets I was approached by a kindly lady and her little daughter.
She explained that she happened to see me when she walked the dog, and wondered if there was anything she could do for me.
Now, it's not often that I get such an offer. Most people are in a hurry to get away from me, not then, but 5 minutes ago! I did need a sheet to cover me when it was too hot for the sleeping bag and to protect against the insects at night, so I told her so.
Later in the month she returned. But I haven't seen her since. I must admit to missing her and her almost-grown 6 year-old (I guess). I often wonder what happened. Did she suddenly come to her senses and realize she was trying to help a bum? At least she did try and communicate.
Speaking of communicate, click on the link and check out this cell phone company for me, huh? I could really use the help. Thanks. See you later down the line, God Willing...
