[Soft*Silver]

I had a marvelous time at Barnes and Noble today. (My dog was getting groomed and I had time to kill) I started off with a cappichino. In front of me in line was a very old gentleman, all decked out in a suit, and tie, using a three pronged cane. He had a foreign accent...like austrian almost. Very frail but his eyes beamed and he was abviously someone who came there alot for the staff all knew him and how he liked his drink. When it came time to pay, I stepped up and said, it was on me. An act of random kindness and a salute to the gentle nature of the man. Oh he beamed at me and was so flushed and accepted it with such a genteelness...and then he said something that made my day "How nice it is to be treated by such a lovely young woman"....



age is relative. What you do with it, is absolute...
