This morning I went for an early walk before the heat of the day.  I passed an elderly man with very stooped shoulders.  He was enjoying eating fresh mulberries off of a tree - only he was finding the newly dropped ones on the dirt street.  I grabbed a branch and pulled off a handful of juicy, ripe mulberries and placed them into his hand.  His big toothless smile warmed my heart.
I stepped outside of the library for a moment, a woman was behind a car getting ready to push it so the driver could jump start it.  I helped push, it started, they drove off.  Another smile on my face.
I shared apple cobbler I made last night with new neighbors and friends.  Lots of genuine ooooohs and aaaaaahs.  It's not a dish they have here and they loved it.  I was happy to share with so many who have shared so much with me.
This evening my Bulgarian tutor came and we had a giggly session - she thinks the way I say some things is hilarious - it is!  How about the word for zucchini "teekvineechkee."  Say that with a straight face!
And now I just returned from a short evening walk with the full moon.
So many blessings in my day.  Wow.
