sometimes it is the simple things

 Today I had many errands.  First thing was to take my car for an annual emissions test.  I'm sure there are plenty of places closer to my house, but I have been going to this particular station for years.  The gentleman that runs it is always so friendly.  Today, another man was helping him with the task.  He was just as nice.  We started chatting about this and that.  He was telling me that he drives from the south side of Atlanta to work.  I couldn't believe it.  That is a long way to drive.  He said, "I don't mind the drive, I love my work".  What a great attitude to have.  

I always take extra bottles of water in my car when I go anywhere.  I asked him if he would like a bottle of water.  I received a friendly smile, and a "yes, thank you very much".  Sometimes, it is the little things. 

A bottle of water might not be a big deal to someone, but if you are thirsty, it sure is appreciated.
