Dear Editor:
With all of the bad news and negativity that is in the news and in the press, I thought I would share this with you.
As I walked out of London Drugs towards Buy Low, a woman was sitting on the bench outside of the medical clinic. I walked down the ramp and she spoke to me as I came closer to her.
She said that I was just beautiful from head to toe. I stopped and thanked her, and we chatted about our age. I complimented her as well, she was beautiful. I said I was 63 and she said she was 59; we had a giggle about doing our best at our age.
What she didn’t know is that during the last 1.5 years, I have been dealing with heart issues, ambulanced at least 25 times and waiting for heart surgery. I had very seldom spent time on my appearance, but this morning I felt good. Thought about bleaching my hair because of all the gray, but I just changed the hair style.
What she doesn’t know is how much she changed my mood and my day with two seconds of her time. I have been smiling on the inside all day. I hope she lives in New Westminster and reads this paper. I just wanted her to know.
Thank you.
Rachelle
