Today something saddened me...I was flitting through the grocery store with a skip in my step...The fall air was crisp and everyone had beautiful, friendly smiles on their faces. I had small talk with a few of them about pumpkin carving, caramel apples and how beautiful the morning was...As I went around the corner, a young boy ran into me. The guardian yelled horrible words at him and looked at me to apologize and making sure to let me know that he was not her child. Like he wasn't good enough?
The boy looked sad and beaten down. My heart broke for him...I looked him in the eyes and made sure he knew it wasn't his fault and wished him a Happy Halloween and lots of candy...Making sure to not acknowledge the so called" guardian. I walked away saddened and helpless. I thought about things I could or should of said...I guess the only thing I can really do is pray that he be able to rise above the words and the abuse. And wish his little life the best...Remember words hurt and they can change the way the person (man, woman and child) thinks, acts and leads their lives. We all get upset from time to time, but there is always away to handle that anger...and words are not it! Repost this and let's spread the word that words are damaging and they hurt...This photo says it all...
