Heading up to the store tonight for some groceries, i met Tiffany, an American who was volunteering for the NZ Red Cross. It's funny how a very short interlude with someone can pick your day up no end. It's probably helped that she was beautiful, like Megan Fox kinds beautiful, but it was the smile she had that immediately warmed you. She said hello and asked how my day was going, and that opened the conversation. We spoke for a good while, and it was one of those meetings where conversation flows and you can just ask a question, or say something about you, your day, or whatever, and it's always a smile in response. We'd talked for a while but she and her colleagues were wrapping up their day of getting signatures so i wished her a great evening and walked off towards the setting sun.
Slightly odd feeling as i walked off, felt like i should of told her how much energy she was giving out, and how wonderful and refreshing it was to see someone, out there doing compassionate work and truly making a difference to people days. She definitely made a difference to my day.
Maybe she'll be there tomorrow...
