Spending time with Bert

[irenicspace]

While showering this morning my mind was other places thinking of other things. I thought of the street I grew up on in Rhode Island an elderly man who lived at the top of the street named Bert

After reading your wonderful story, I keep thinking to myself...I hope he knew how much he made a difference in YOUR life and I am sure you made a difference in his as well. Most of the time people have no idea when they are helping another make some kind of change or difference in their life. And by you even writing this story, there is no telling how many others you will affect as well. I have never had much of a family and often have had to adopt short term so-called "family" members until they left or what not, so when I hear of someone having the Christmas time or Thanksgiving.....I think to myself...do they realize how lucky they are?

Thank you for sharing. I love being touched by you through your writings.
