Nice stories, and it is refreshing to read some good news for once. I just had a long chat with a woman in the grocery store yesterday as I was perusing the cat treats section. She was young and a new cat owner, so asked me what the difference was. We went from cat treats, to cats, to young kids (she was a nanny to the toddler in her cart) and all the shenanigans they pull. Probably a good 5-7 minute conversation, I am chatty by nature too and enjoy connecting with random strangers, and usually politics is not even in the convo. But then there was the guy with the 'We the People...are pissed off' shirt in the parking lot, and that conversation did turn to politics, haha.
You are 100% correct. I’m often asked what was it like for you growing up in Wellesley as a minority. My answer has always been it was awesome. I don’t remember it ever coming up. You have always been an inviting and accepting person and I believe if more people were open to dialogue we would all have better understanding.
Wonderful piece ❤️
