I remember this day I was walking to school along my stretch of road (about 6.30 am). I'd been feeling really bad the past few days over things in my life and at that point I was pretty much trudging, having no desire or purpose to do anything, least of all go to school for tests. Then suddenly out of one of the condominiums this taxi drives out in front of me and halts for a second and I see these 2 kids taking a cab to school. And these are..probably 7-8 yrd olds and one of them just smiles this totally gleeful, joyous, happy smile at me and for just a second it takes my breath away. Its very strange, but its almost like that smile has no worries, no troubles, no insecurities, just total and unrestrained joy. Brightened up my week..
Incredible things that young children can do!
