Celebrate The Real World Winners

---

This old gal…

Stopped for groceries…her trusty sidekick home with that broken foot…heading out of the store…it began to rain…

Got dark…windy…drops pelting from this way and that…bumble ran with the cart…fumbled with the rear hatch…then heard…

Ma’am…go ahead and get in the front seat…I’ll put the groceries in for you…there’s no need…for you to get soaked…

And there he was…a knight in shining armor…or more like a youth…retrieving carts…taking over…getting drenched…going out of his way…to do a good deed…

Snuck his photo…shared it with the boss…cuz this kid…is a winner…and like all winners…he…should be celebrated…

And so it is…we cheer on those athletes…performers…artists…but let’s not forget the real world winners…the every day winners…the shopping cart boy winners…

Who still believe in good…who fight…for good…who do what they do…to be kind…to be helpful…to do all they can…to make this world…a better place…
​
And that husband of mine…agrees…
