After my yoga class the other day, I stopped for some tofu
takeout. While waiting for my brown rice and sprouts, an older Indian gentleman
came into the restaurant. “Hello my prrrrrincess!” he jubilantly exclaimed to the
cashier, his accent quite pronounced. “How are you today?” She smiled and
replied she was very busy. “Oh, keeping busy is a very good thing” he said. He
paid for his tofu, turned to me and said “And a very good night to you, my dear!” And with that, he left the restaurant. He was
practically skipping. The cashier was smiling. I was smiling. Anyone within
earshot of the whole happy exchange was smiling.
Happiness is contagious.
