I have found courtesy and a gentle humor among fellow shoppers as we try to navigate the one way aisles in the grocery store during the early morning hours set aside for seniors; there seems to be an extra warmth in the exchanges of pleasantries when walking about the neighborhood, as a "how are you?" inquiry really is asking about the state of your well being and a concern for your health.

Perhaps if we can wean ourselves of cable news and the obsession with the contact sport of what passes for political discourse we can all find a little bit of that magic that you refer to.
I've experienced that also but it's sad we can't see a smile or give one back for others to see. We can only imagine. So true JB, and I thought nobody could be as big a cockeyed optimist as I am. I'd welcome you to the club but it sounds you've been for good long time!!!
