The other day I saw a man in the mall food court. He carried a tim hortons tray...and on that tray: Two Boston Cream donuts, a medium hot beverage cup(coffee?) and one package of crackers. He sat alone at a table with hands clasped and eyes closed in quiet prayer/reflection(?). He remained so for a couple of moments, then opening his eyes he hungrily dug into the package of crakers. After he was done these, he happily moved on to the donuts. Its a bit creepy, I suppose, that I was so focused on this man for such a long period of time, but I like people watching and I dont think he noticed. I hope I was more subtle than my observations would indicate.
He made me smile.
He made me think of the assumptions I make about people based on my limited observation of them.
Tomorrow is the American election. I wonder, how little we actually know about the candidates? How much of the observations we have of them are false or put on? I wonder, how much below the surface we are unaware of?
I had a fantastic weekend. Thank you.
I had dinner with Tasia tonight. It was wonderful lasagna. Thank you Tasia.
