Kindness!

While leaving my SUV to enter Tops in Avon on March 3rd, a young man was coming out with a large bouquet of flowers. I said, “Oh, flowers for me? You shouldn’t have.” We both laughed and went on our ways. When I came out, my daughter (who had waited in the car) had a bouquet of flowers on her lap. She said the man came over, said he was a Christian, and God wanted him to give the flowers to me and he would go back in and get more for his wife. My daughter said thank you and my mom will cry, which I did. What he did not know was that our family had a very difficult week. I will think of his kindness each time I look at these flowers and when the time is right will do the same for someone else. They say bad people are taking over our world, but I continue to believe that the good ones are all over; we just don’t hear as much about them. Many thanks to this kind man.

HONESTY & KINDNESS OF LIVING IN SMALL TOWN!

I can't express my gratitude and thanks enough to the volunteers and the two Amish women who spent 2 hours in the freezing cold February 25th helping me look for the money i dropped in the parking lot of the Church Thrift shop in Livonia. Your assistance and kindness will not be forgotten. It meant more than you will ever know.

A Huge Thank You

To the individual(s) who paid for our dinner on January 19th at the Finger Lakes Public House. Our family had just come from my niece’s mother’s funeral. We just want you to know, from the bottom of our hearts, that your thoughtfulness did not go unnoticed. We want to say a huge thank you, and to let everyone know that there are still wonderful and caring individuals out there.

Technically Handicapped

My rant is to open the eyes of the masses to the technically handicapped. I am one of them. At 68 years of age I fall in the gap of no major training of computers, smart phones, etc. I am also on a fixed income and can’t afford all the gadgets nor the price of the Internet. When I need help for things that have to be done online. I have to hire someone to do so. Every shop, restaurant, government, and medical office has some form, deal or discount that is only online. Having no cell phone, computer to access these deals, or forms, etc. Life for myself with technology is extremely frustrating! I only ask that businesses and the government, etc. stop discriminating against my handicap as they do for the physically handicapped, waiting just a while longer until demanding things be only assessed online until every generation is technically taught at a young age. Yes, I have taken classes available at libraries. I also do not want a government issued phone. Do others agree?

LIFE'S SHORT - WHY WASTE IT CRITICIZING OTHERS?

Life is short. Why do people aleays have to criticize each other for choices they make? We each only have one life to live. Just because someone does things differently than you would doesn't mean you should chastise them for it!

ICE AND SNOW, TAKE IT SLOW

When we get a snowstorm in Western NY, why do people all of a sudden become race car drivers who cut each other off and make people slam on their brakes, maneuvering precariously in the icy snow?! Ice and snow, take it slow.
