A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God lived so he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato chips and a six pack of cola and started his journey. When he had gone about three blocks he met an old woman. She was sitting in the park staring at some pigeons. The boy sat down next to her and opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink from his cola when he noticed that the old lady looked hungry so he offered her some chips. She gratefully accepted it and smiled at him. Her smile was so pretty that the boy wanted to see it again so he offered her a cola. Again she smiled at him. The boy was delighted They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling but they never said a word. As twilight approached the boy realized how tired he was and he got up to leave but before he had gone more than a few steps he turned around ran back to the old woman and gave her a hug. She gave him her biggest smile ever. When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time later his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him What did you do today that made you so happy He replied I had lunch with God. But before his mother could respond he added You know what She s got the most beautiful smile I ve ever seen Meanwhile the old woman also radiant with joy returned to her home. Her son was stunned by the look of peace on her face and he asked Mother what did you do today that made you so happy She replied I ate potato chips in the park with God. However before her son responded she added You know he s much younger than I expected. Too often we underestimate the power of a touch a smile a kind word a listening ear an honest compliment or the smallest act of caring all of which have the potential to turn a life around. People come into our lives for a reason a season or a lifetime. Embrace all equally
