Hugs And Prayers

Maybe I looked sad because I did not get anything for Valentine Day? Maybe it was the sadness that you can see if you look deeply in my eyes, or the bent ravaged body that Ankylosing Spondylitis has destroyed. 

I am not sure but out of nowhere a young man came up to me and asked if he could say a prayer over me. I was stunned, and humbled that someone would want to do this for me. We closed our eyes right there in the check out lane in Wal Mart, soft words of love and comfort being spoken to me and for me. 

Today I am grateful that their are still compassionate young men in the world and today I was hugged by one.
