“My neighbor is sick. I will take them there.”

On a cold Pennsylvania morning, I enjoyed getting set to pass out 100 bouquets of free, fresh bouquets - following safety guidelines. The flowers are all donated to me.

I stopped at a church and gave one to a lady who was deep in thought. She loved the pink and white roses. As I was leaving, I said “I hope you get whatever you are praying for.” She replied, “I just did. You giving these to me now was God giving me a sign.”

Some comments - “I am on my way to visit a friend’s mother in a nursing home. I can’t go in but I can wave at the window and ask an employee to bring these flowers to her room.”

“My neighbor is sick. I will take them there.”

I left a box with 40 bouquets on George Street and watched as the ladies came out of their row homes to enjoy taking the bounty of beauty. (I go there several times a month.)

And to people at an auto repair shop, a laundromat, a senior center, a church office and to people on the street.

Today was a day that I felt that the city needed a bright light of love to shine.....an illumination of peace after the upsetting news in Washington on January 6.
