Happy to win First Place in Health/Medicine, among San Diego magazines, at SD Press Club awards last night. It was for this story https://t.co/YWmxVtZSVW #writers#health#farming#growing#awards
This version of Bach’s first cello suite was recorded live in the Great Smoky Mountains. I’ve always thought of Suite No. 1 as “Nature at Play,” so it was a dream to play it with the birds, the trees, and the rushing brook. ▶️ https://t.co/AQn2pIuZQM
I needed this story today.
“We were in Athens yesterday and Avery had to go to the bathroom really, really bad.
She and I ran into the closest place which was a Subway in downtown Athens. We ran straight to the bathroom and the employee got my attention and told me the bathroom was only for paying customers.
I didn’t have my wallet with me 🤦🏻♀️and I told him I was sorry, I didn’t have my wallet and we would leave.
Without hesitation these 2 young men spoke up and said they would buy a cookie for Avery so she could be a “paying customer” so she could use the restroom. I was so grateful, thanked them profusely and dashed in the restroom with Avery.
We came back out and they were still there, so I thanked them again and started talking with them. Turns out they both play on the UGA football team. (Go Dawgs)
We had a great conversation and exchanged some laughs, and talked about football.
To some it may seem like a small act, but I was so thankful and impressed that these 2 college kids who don’t have kids of their own gave so freely and without hesitation to help us out.
The world needs MORE of this!
Thank you Latavious & Jaylen!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Fine young men who asked for nothing in return and a great example. A much needed ray of sunshine.
Food for thought.
Go Dawgs!! ❤️🖤”
