I love making new friends. The grocery store clerk, the guy walking his dog, the bus driver or janitor or drive-thru worker are all potential friends. There’s just something wonderful about being able to exchange a smile and a few words with other people that makes me happy. My favorite place to make friends is while I’m in line. It’s a cross between everyone focused on the same goal and people not being able to leave that makes it prime hunting ground for chatting. Today I got the chance to talk to a lot of people in line when there was only one lane open at Meijer. Not everybody was so pleased at the extended wait time, but I enjoyed the chance to meet new people. I’m grateful to God for giving me a love for people and an attitude that expresses that love.
