today i had to run into the grocery store.
this causes me a lot of anxiety as i don't like to be in public. so many times through my life i have been ridiculed, mocked, and made fun of for various reasons. in the more recent years it's been because of my weight.
(that, by the way, is going great. i'm down 29lbs. i have a long way to go, but i'm on the way. 🎉🎈)
anyway, i am still sick and generally feel like crap. however, i still make an effort when i have to go to work. so it's not like i look like a troll, but my nose is red from all the blowing and wiping. i just want to get in and get out.
i'm in an aisle and there are others there and this gentleman needed to get through. i scooched towards the shelves and let him by.
he said: "i'm so sorry, excuse me."
i said: "oh no!! it's all good. you're fine."
he said: "and so are YOU." and he winked as he walked by.
😮😲😳
wow. it's been a very long time since i've heard something like this. but it warmed my heart. and made me feel not so awkward in this ever superficial world of social media and perfection.
this man will never really understand how those four words changed the whole course of my day.
thank you guy in the grocery store. i wish you to have an amazing 2019. you certainly just set mine off right.
