Having learned my lesson from the
other day I dressed with more care at 6:30 in the morning in case I did have a
chance encounter.
I made my way through the jungle
of a grocery store searching for anything that I may want to eat later in the
day. I was not hungry and none of the
fresh fruits or brilliantly colored vegetables tempted me. I made another circle through the entire
store settling on food for my cat and a quick breakfast sandwich I could grab
on my way to my early 2 mile hike the next morning and salad fixings.
I paid and pushed my buggy out to
the nearly deserted parking lot.
But it was not so deserted. Oscar
Wilde had come out shortly after me and was advancing across the parking lot.
He looked over and greeted me with a cheery “Good Morning!” which I
returned. He loaded his car as I loaded
mine. I was pushing the grocery buggy over to the “bar” as my daughter calls
them so it could converse with the other buggies when Oscar steps out with hand
extended to take control of my buggy and save me the walk. I thanked him and he
gave me a slight head nod and says “Yes Ma’am’.
Some
cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.
Oscar
Wilde
