I'm glad I've slowed down enough to enjoy the things I used to disregard.

Just last week I was pushing my grocery cart to my car and saw a little sparrow eating part of a pretzel he had found in the parking lot. I stopped at the back of my car and watched him. He saw me but didn't fly away. He had something good and it was going to take alot to make him risk losing it.

Another shopper (a lady) walked by and asked if I was okay. Guess I looked like I was just standing there staring at nothing. I told her I was letting the bird finish his pretzel. She stood there with me and watched, too!

Pretty soon some man came by and slammed his cart into the cart corral and scared the bird away.

He missed it all......poor guy.
