Just two little words

I was walking along the street the other day, lost in my thoughts and feeling pretty down about the current state of the world. Watching the news is overwhelming. Reports of good news are hard to find.

Then I passed a young guy who was taking a selfie on the sidewalk. As he stepped aside to let me by, he smiled and said “Happy Wednesday!” Those two little words snapped me out of my gloomy thoughts. And reminded me how little it takes to help each other through these trying times.
