whats your story?

Ok, so you think you are having a bad day and you meet this guy.  You start idle chit chat with him while you are bumming a cigarette.  

"So, what's your story" I ask.

"Well, I milk cows, and oh yeah, in 2005 I had open heart surgery and my wife died the same year".

silence.

"Wow, I'm so sorry" I reply.

"That's ok." He replies.  I will see her someday.  He pulls out a cigarette and gives me one for later.


Wow.

Put things back in perspective for me : right quick.

Talk later,

Annie
