I ventured into Walmart today (I know..) and among all the things that made me go "WHA???" there was one thing that made me smile.
There was a couple of developmentally disabled adults standing in the checkout line. Both were just doing their thing, emptying their basket when one of them gets the most excited look on his face and digs way down into the basket and comes up with the cutest stuffed monkey. He hugged that monkey so hard and gave it the biggest kiss....his face was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen...it was Bliss, pure bliss. You don't get to see that everyday.
