guy who built his own guitar

he got some much joy from sharing something beautiful he made with other people. all he wanted to do was pass on the gift of his guitar. he didn’t want famous guitarists to play it so he could say they did, he just wanted them to be able to experience something so rare and amazing.

this guy comes in to the sandwich store i work at every single day and gets a roast beef sandwich with peppers and pepper jack cheese. every. day. and a minute maid lemonade in a can. and he is always so cheery and pleasant and incredibly friendly. i never see him with anyone else but he is always so content.

this adorable lady also comes into the sandwich shop and i just think she is wonderful. she just got back from the hospital - she had been gone for two weeks and is now tring to catch up with her work. she is so sweet and i hope she has a quick recovery. she is gaelic and is a teacher at the university. for some reason, she just makes me smile. 

guy that came into ww today

and yet another person at the sandwich store.

but this one is probably what inspired me to write this post. my coworker and i were talking about how we were kind of having a shitty day and he was like yeah today is the worst. nothing about him screamed that he was having a bad day. just looked like an average workman. i asked him what was wrong and he said oh, just so much. 

it is so important to treat everyone you meet kindly because you have no idea what is going on in their lives. 

and when you’re having a bad day - you’re not alone. in fact, it’s pretty likely that there are quite a few people whose day is much worse.

“don’t sweat the small stuff. life’s too short. you have to live for today. no one told you you’re gonna wake up tomorrow morning.” some how, with everything i do, i meet an old man who gives me some sort of life lesson. he told me how he likes who he is and he could care less what other people think because he likes his life and that’s all that matters. you just have to worry about yourself, enjoying your life, and loving what you do. it’s always nice to have someone remind you of those things i think.
