I forgot to shake hands and be friendly.
There is a man I would see when I went walking
He was probably in his 80's
and a bit of a grump
For one solid year,
My dog and I said hello and smiled whenever we saw him
No response
But we would not give up
He grumped right by us every day
And we just kept giving him a big hello
(or a friendly wag in my dog's case)
Then one day,
he just gave up
he smiled!
He said good morning!
It felt like Christmas!
I believe that inside every grump
there is a smile waiting to come out
Go! Find a grump
Then give him a reason to smile!
and that's poetiquejustis
A cheerful heart is a good medicine
Proverbs 17:22
