Making A Difference To Someone
Making A Difference To Someone One of my elderly, widowed neighbours sometimes comes across as aloof, cranky and unfriendly. Other times, she is engaging, cheery and congenial. You just don't know which version you will encounter. A few days ago, she was standing in her driveway looking pensive. I greeted her as I always do and asked if everything was OK. We chatted for a few minutes and I asked if she needed anything at the store. Initially, she was quite hesitant. She finally admitted she could always use a loaf of bread but didn't want me to make a special trip. Of course, I did in fact make a special trip just for her. Later, when I delivered that $2.00 loaf of bread, tears glistened in her eyes. She insisted I wait while she got her purse. When she pulled out the money, a $5.00 bill was clutched in her fingers. I told her I didn't want her paying me, it was my pleasure to help. She pulled herself up to her full height, eyes glistening and declared, "I know that. And I know that you really mean it. But I appreciate your help." Now it was my eyes that were glistening as a thanked her and slowly returned home. |

I will never be doing any big things in my life but I can help make life a bit better or add cheer to many others just by being positive or helpful in "little things" that are not little. Like what you did. If you see me in the real world, come say "Hi Justskin." I always behave. Preferably not well.

I have to share that during the first half of 2021 I did some volunteer work at the Virginia Department of Health making a receiving calls from elderly (over 65) Virginia residents who were having trouble getting appointments to receive their Covid-19 vaccinations. Now, to me, sitting in a chair talking on the phone was one of those "little things" but to the people I talked to and helped schedule appointments for them it was one of the biggest and best things that had happened to them in a while - more than one person cried. So, neither one of us may ever win a Nobel prize, neither one of us my engineer the next great breakthrough much of what we consider "little things" mean the world to someone else. As Paul Overstreet says "everyone is somebody's hero"
