Lets we do something.


SMILE

As I was driving yesterday, I saw a young guy on the corner of the street holding up a small cardboard sign. I immediately thought to myself before I even read the sign, "Why is he asking for money? He could go and get a job  if he wanted to." As I pulled up close enough to read the sign it said....

SMILE
It could be worse.

I had a few thoughts pop into my head after I read this:
1. I felt terrible for immediately judging him. It made me realize how easy it is to judge people when you really have no idea what their background is. 
2. It made me smile and realize, wow, I have so many things to be grateful for. Everything could be SO much worse. 
3. I really admired him for spending his own time to try to make everyone who drove past days a little bit better. :)
