GIVING OTHER MEN ‘PERMISSION’
(cute story)
I was with Liliya and the boys the other day, and we were in a chocolate shop, letting the kids choose which piece of identically flavored but different shaped chocolate that they wanted. (The older one is a bit greedy and impulsive so he wants to see if he can get more than one out of me – knowing I am a sucker – but I’m adamant that they get only one.)
So I’m standing there as usual typing away on my iPhone and this young couple, maybe twenty years old, is all mushy and romantic in the corner, and just as I look up, I catch his eyes – he subconsciously wants to make sure he hasn’t impugned his masculinity somehow as he returns to reality.
So I smile and start laughing. Give him a thumbs up. Grab Lilia and kiss her. Saying “See. It’s ok. If we all do it.”
They know enough English to understand. And we each chuckle for a few minutes.
If you only seek to ENTERTAIN, not to OBTAIN, you can make the world a better place.
Little things matter. Because little things in large numbers have vast consequences.
