25 cent cookie, million dollar lesson

I never really explained my last entry. That was just an assignment for class and I just wanted to share it. :) You know whats funny? I am having a hard time forming words because I was just studying french and I want to put the words in the wrong order (in english) and start writing things that would make more sense in french. hehe ;) Thats a good sign I guess but it is a little bit of a hassle. 

You know, I think about things to say on this thing, things to say to try and "change the world", make it a better place, but the more that I complain about things that I see that shouldnt be, the more I realize that I am not making it any better by being a cynic or when I am on the look out for mistakes we all make in general. 

I think that the world is a wonderful place. That although we all do silly things, we all have a good heart. I like this world and I like the people in it. It was sweet, when I was running to class I saw a little boy selling cookies. I was in such a hurry that I didnt think that I would have the time to get a cookie from him but just as I passed I realized that I did have the time if I wanted to make it, and that sometimes it was best to have a little fun and brighten some kid's day. Besides, I thought to myself, if I were a kid wanting to make a little money and someone bought my store bought cookies I would be so excited. Kids are so easily pleased, why not? I mean a smile is worth much more than a mere 25 cents. But, I did feel jipped when later on in the day two young girls were doing the same thing but instead of shouting "COOKIES FOR SALE!" as the boy did, they were yelling "COOKIES FOR SALE! BUY TWO AND GET ONE FREE!" ;) well, at least they were being little entrepreneurs, you gotta give them that much. ;)

So, the lesson I learned today was that there is never too little time to do something worth while. Life brightens in color when you step outside yourself and do something you "just dont have time to do." We all have the excuse. I know I have it all the time, but I want to break the monotony and the staleness of living selfishly every moment for myself.
