Stranger walking encounters

"I couldn't even look at a female without crying. That's how bad off I was," a man was explaining to a guy walking his dog. As I walked away, he said, "Her passing by? I'd be way over there..."

In the morning a tall older woman with a walker stood in the middle of the sidewalk beaming at me. I was talking on the phone but she had to stop me because my shirt said Michigan, and she grew up there. "I'll never go back. It's too cold." Her farewell was another big smile and shouting "I love you!"
