Think
About.              it
If                             every  
body                            Helped
Just.                                       one
Person.                     ­            What.            
      a                                   wonderful
world.                            it

Post grip
I’ve been pondering this concept for a couple of weeks now. A man behind me at the grocery store had one item. I let him go in front of me, and he was very grateful. I had quite a few things, and I wasn’t in a hurry. He grabbed a few things at the register like most of us do. We got to talking how most people say negative things, and they don’t bother the time to say thank you or a simple kindness. Then when his change came, he told the checker to give it to me one good turn deserves another. He sad smiling. This was a man late 60s early 70s.. He was wearing a Taco Bell apron, ( probably on a break or lunch ) and he gave me his change!
one person. whatever you can,
I don’t know I am pretty confident that was the Lord telling me I’m on the right track. Now I’m excited to pay it forward.
It’s just a couple of bucks, but it was enough for lunch.



Inspired song

We are the world. We are the children.
Multiple artist 1-28-1985
I was trying to make the poem
in the shape of the world.
But like the world
things don’t always fit
the way you want them to.
