We move lightly- Dustin O'Halloran

It's been a bit of a grey day.  Started out pretty shaky, but stabilized to a quiet hum.  The day is moving right along.

The mailman is who makes my day, of late.  He comes at 9am and 2pm with a little brown bag full of mail for the department, and, golly, he is a happy fellow.  He greets me every time he comes in, asks me how I'm doing, and wishes me well on his way out.  I shared a cookie with him the other day.  I hope I brightened his day as much as he brightens mine.

I hope I'm able to be that sort of person; one that unwittingly carries the sun on her shoulders.  I don't know if I am or not, but maybe you're not meant to know when you're that sort of person.  I guess all I can do is strive to become that person everyday and hope that I shed a little light in this dreary world.

I'm pretty blessed, when I think about it.  I have so many sources of light in my life- my Family, my dog, my friends, my colleagues.

I suppose this day might not be as grey as I thought.
