The elderly man at 47b was not happy with what he was reading.
He was not at all happy with the unkind way people were treating each other. He knew that this was a generality, but what he was reading in the newspapers and seeing on the TV news every night, all served to bear out the notion. There were so many wars going on around the world. In some cases, people were starving; even dying through lack of food. He just couldn’t understand how this sort of thing could be done to others. He put the newspaper down with a scowl. All this was true and he had to get out. He grabbed a bag. He would take a stroll down to the corner shop; there were a couple of items he needed and the fresh air would do him good.
When he was opposite the store, he had crossed the road too quickly, and lost his footing when mounting the pavement on the other side. He fell quite heavily onto the footpath. He laid there for a moment, more out of shock than anything. He hadn’t broken any bones, as far as he could tell. He was wriggling around to confirm this, when a young man with a concerned expression appeared, quite out of the blue.
“Are you ok?” He asked.
Still a bit dazed, the old man peered up at him.
“Are you ok?” he repeated. “I saw you fall”, he went on, holding out his hand.
It was a bit of a struggle, helping him to his feet. Once he was up, the old man said, “Thank you young man, that was very kind of you.”
“Not a problem,” said the other, looking quite pleased with himself. Then, smiling, he walked away down the street, giving the old man a wave as he entered the shop.
Inside, he got what he needed and went for his wallet… It wasn’t there!
He was halfway to the door, when he found it in another pocket. Returning to the counter, he apologised, put items in his bag and paid.
When he finally got back out onto the street again, he paused to take in the fresh air. It felt good. He may not understand why the world is the way it is, but he did know that there was still some kindness in it.

Heya just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading properly. I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different browsers and both show the same results.
