Pick Me Up
August 17, 2011
Alex had to pick up a kid on his way to school today. Someone who needed a ride to school. I thought about how those little moments, a ride to school, a pat on the back in the football huddle, a high five or fist bump even- those moments add up to make a difference in the life of a teen.
Alex is great about stuff like that. And he does it without a thought of “the moment” it creates. That’s the best. Just doing stuff day in and day out.
You truly never know what a difference you are making in someone’s life. You may never know how your smile, opened door, or thoughtful conversation changed a person’s life, but those little things add up day in and day out.
Makes me think of my day a little differently.
