Today after work, on my jog at the reservoir/airport, there was a group of elderly special needs folks out for a walk with their care takers/companions. One very old grey headed fellow, with a very drippy nose, walked along looking so happy to be out on this fine day, holding hands with his care taker (a man of about 40-ish). Oh my goodness...that just made me so happy to see that sight.
As I entered Putnam, the River Walk was loaded!
A few things that stood out to me:
A busy family taking some time together - the mom holding hands with the little toddler of a daughter, and the dad had the dog on the leash.
Two elderly men, sitting in their chairs (one chair was actually a walker that converted into a seat when he needed a rest), watching the traffic (both vehicles on Kennedy Drive & walkers on the River Trail going by. One pal clearly brought his buddy out to enjoy the great day! How nice!
There were smiles everywhere. Happy people everywhere. Sights like that just reach right down deep into my core and make me so happy I could cry.
Look around at people you see, and you won't be able to resist. You will love people, too!
I am a Putnamaniac because I just love the people here in Northeast CT!
