IAAC#5 - Small things that make you alive
Hi everyone! The aliveness of this day came from small things that can surely make up your whole day. So, I felt happy and alive to have lunch with a friend after a long time and to make a small gesture to some people I thought they might need it.
So, I went with my friend to a bistro in my neighborhood and tried to catch up with the last things that happened in our lives and make some small plans for Christmas.
We have eaten two good vegetable pancakes and enjoyed some tea and entered a bit in a before-Christmas atmosphere.
At a certain moment, I have seen two people, a woman, and a man, at the table in front of us. They looked very modest and rusty and we decided to pay for their meal. We asked the waitress to tell them we are pleased to do that and fortunately, they accepted it and thanked us at the end of their lunch.
| I felt alive |

| knowing that not only I have caught up with my friend, but I have also done a small gesture to some people for whom it represents much more. |
So, not only because the Winter Holidays are approaching, but in general I think we shouldn't forget about people around us who are in need and if possible trying to ease their suffering.
