I was leaving the Bear game yesterday and I lost my buddy in the crowd and then I turned down the wrong aisle in the parking garage.
After I figured out my bearings I doubled back towards my tailgate. I passed a group of guys drinking beers and one of them said, “You look lost, have a beer!” And he handed me a fresh bottle of beer out of his cooler.
I told him this was the best part of my day… his act of kindness. I shook his hand, high fived his buddies and we all screamed “Bear Down!”
I walked away thinking that I need to pass along the kindness shown to me.
A cold bottle of beer from a stranger will always make life better.
It’s the last week of September and yesterday was the last day with 12 hours of daylight until next year. The Bears are a horrible 2-1 team and the White Sox rolled over and died last week.
The sweater drawer is going to open and close all week and the extra blanket is on call. So let’s finish the month of September on a good note and pass kindness forward.
