The Spirit of Christmas Lives!
I just returned inside after shoveling the entrance to my driveway for about the tenth time over the past few days. Being in a heavy traffic area, the street plows are constantly on the move. The snow was wet and heavy and I was about to take my last breath (or so it seemed), when a man appeared out of nowhere and asked if he could help. He grabbed the shovel and took up the task. What would have taken me close to an hour was done in a matter of minutes. He wished me a nice Christmas and went on his way. I don’t know who that masked man was, but it was probably the most meaningful present I will receive. I am sure he didn’t fully realize how much I appreciated his kindness. Goes to prove that there are still a lot of good people in this old world.
All I can say is Merry Christmas and God bless!
