Heed the Message Behind the Feeling

Don’t turn away when it’s in your power to help.

(30-Day Challenge — Day 28)

Feelings can be wrong and sometimes if acted upon turn my life upside down.

Then, there is my unexplainable feeling that just appears. Something odd and not right is near.

This is not mystical or weird. And, in fact by observation I see, sense, and know something is “off” with the man in the beard.

Light conversation gives weight to his unhappy state. My feeling was right. His life is riddled with loneliness and a dead wife.

How did I know to approach this stranger I did not know? Perhaps it was his head that he carried so low. Or, his fake smile and his eyes dull without a glow.

To not act on these feelings of mine, would be a tragedy of another kind.

A soft word and a caring way was all this bearded man needed for the day.

So, if you ever get these feelings like mine… Act upon them, for they are a gift of a special kind.

Thank you for reading.
