We're only human.

How many times have you wanted to start your post with a 'So' ? It happens a lot does it not? :) Anyway...

This afternoon, I received a message from a friend, a message telling me about what he/she(I don't like being too personal, and yes, gender is personal) had experienced something great earlier today. He/She talked about how he/she had just realised/discovered the greatness of giving; KINDNESS, GENEROSITY, LOVE, you know... all that. He/She explained that the smile of gratitude that he had received from an elderly women simply made him, happy. He/She also explained how that one smile and that one sincere 'thank you' cannot help but remain in his/her heart until now, and I believe that it will remain in his/her heart for a very long time.

Now, if you ask me, that right there is proof of the love that exists in this world. Moments like these are also a reminder, to me, and I hope to you, that we are all just people. We are all merely humans. We need each other. So don't go trying to conquer the world by yourself because first of all, it's selfish and secondly, it's just not going to work.

He/She will always remember that day, that elderly woman and that smile. =)
