Ten years ago, when my oldest was in kindergarten, I would wait with him at the end of our long wooded driveway every morning for the bus. If it was winter, we waited in the heated vehicle, if it was pleasant, we walked the .10 mile to the road. We live on a
very rural road, but the UPS guy frequently makes deliveries and he would wave to us each time he passed by. Eventually he would wave to us if we passed each other driving along the road.
Ten years later and he
still waves if we pass on the road, even though we no longer wait for a bus.
Two things strike me - he's been at his job at least ten years. And he must enjoy it, for he knows the people along his route and cares enough to wave at them like old friends. His wave often makes my day and reminds me that kindness can be a very simple act.
