Thank you Wayne and Jack

Encounters like this make us do a reality check.

I was visiting an older gentleman(70ish) who had just moved into his new apartment here in America. We both were looking out of his living room window and I remarked how bad the weather was and what a shame it was that he could not go out to explore his new surroundings. The time of day was in the middle of the afternoon, it was dark outside, there was thundering and lightening and the rain was coming down fiercely. He looked at me and appeared to have tears in his eyes. There was a warm smile on his face as he said

"Oh no, it is a beautiful day today and I am so happy. There are no bombs in the sky or soldiers in the street."
