You're amazing, and can assure you that in her life you made a huge difference which no amount of money can buy. It is sad how serious life has become, that we miss the simple things which in essence really means a lot more than the "serious" things we got ourselves involved in.
To mary rader - have you ever felt what it's like running, crashing through or falling on top a pile of leaves, it's amazing! The crackling sound of the leaves in your ears, the crisp fresh smell and the amazing feeling of joy whilst looking at the seemingly uncountable amount of leaves folding like a blanket around you, scattering in all directions as it makes it's way back to mother earth, and falling back on top of you as if to say, let's do it again!
I personally wouldn't mind constantly raking up piles of leaves for others just to get this amazing experience. Try it, i'm sure you might understand :-)
I really enjoyed reading this little but hart warming story, thanks for sharing! And keep on playing ;-)

I wonder about the person who raked those leaves into a pile feeling like their needs were disrespected. Did you offer to redo their work after you were finished playing?

There's a kid in all of us that loves the puddles, leaves, etc. Your kindness let your friend enjoy these things that she couldn't have done on her own. I sure you had a ball too! :)
