Joy Showers

I’d just walked off the sky bridge and saw him sitting alone by the big front windows.  We talked about the deep blue of the Texas sky and how much we both enjoyed the gardens surrounding MD Anderson.  Like me, he is a fourth stage cancer survivor, and he pointed to the bandage on his neck, his third metastasis.  But we didn’t linger on our cancers; but talked instead about family and the approaching holiday season.  As he talked about family holiday traditions, his smile grew and I was blessed with a joy shower.  Share a smile today and give someone a joy shower.
