365 Reasons to Smile – Day 29
I was riding my bike yesterday morning when I saw a tall man ahead of me on the road holding something out in front of him. At first, I thought he was walking a dog, but I couldn’t see one. As I got closer, I became more and more puzzled.
Then I realized he was carrying a broom. He was walking along a country road carrying a broom.
Just as I reached him, he stopped and began sweeping the road.
He motioned for me to be careful as I rode through broken glass, and I turned around to thank him.
He yelled something back that seemed to be an explanation of what had happened and a comment that it happens a lot, but I couldn’t really understand him.
But I was smiling at his efforts to make the world a safer place for everyone else.
People who do that always make me smile.

Just So You Know 
“…That light we see is burning in my hall. How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a good deed in a naughty world” ~~ Shakespeare.. The Merchant of Venice.
Some people look for a beautiful place… Others make a place beautiful.. 🙂
Saints (good Samaritans) are truly everywhere.. It’s not where we look, but how we see…
Love that!
