It costs nothing to share a smile and help someone in need. Today I woke up grumpy and on the wrong side of the bed (obviously).
I knew that doing something special for someone would snap me out of this mood. I work with a bunch of college students and today, I met a really nice student. She was returning after the death of her father. He lived to see his daughter attend college! I decided to go one step further and show her where she needed to go for her ID and parking pass.
Instead of telling her, I walked with her. I am rehabilitating from a full knee replacement. I really feel that walking with her not only helped her learn her way around college, but helped me in my rehabilitation process. We both smiled, glad that we had made a new friend. Something so simple as a smile goes a long way.
