WAVE

On my ride home today, I was stopped at an intersection waiting to turn left.  A driver was turning into my street, but very nicely signaled for me to go ahead and pull out onto the street.  I gave him the thank you wave and he acknowledged my wave with a wave. 

That simple gesture made me feel so darn good.

I mean, really, the NICE part was that he let me out into traffic.  But, the wave was like the icing on the cake.  In my mind, he's probably the nicest person on the planet;  all because of that wave. 

I know this is something we all do day in and day out.  Often times, I'll give the wave and won't get one in return.  Sometimes, we do something nice with no wave and it ruins the moment.  We might get a thumbs up, a horn tap, or even a big old smile. 

Today was the perfect combination.  Kindness followed by wave followed by wave.

So, Mr. Truck Driver in Goose Creek, turning left onto Pineview Road:  thank you for making my day.  I salute you and your goodness!
