The title, while some people don't think that I am what I am, actually makes sense. True story. This morning while I was working, an elderly lady came into our store and walked up to me. She said to me "Hello, I'm partially blind, and I need help." So I escorted her around the store to get her shopping done, reading labels for her, basically I was her eyes.While we were walking around the store, she told me of her life, her hardships and blessings. All the while smiling. After about 20 minutes we finished her shopping, and as we were walking back to the registers, which were on the other side of the store, and she said some things to me that made a lot of sense. She told me that she knew I had a good heart, and that many people have been touched by me in a way that she could have only dreamed of. She thanked me multiple times, and say to me " I'm going to pray for you Gabrielle.." We parted at the registers and as I walked back to my work area, electronics, I couldn't help but feel fulfilled in some way. I still can't place my finger on it. But theres something there that wasn't there before. All I can say is, I wasn't motivated to draw something until today.
I really admire you sorry I havent commented on anything in ags I'll make it up now keep up the good work, life is worth while when you can make others' lives all the easier
