The guy at the chinese restaurant was being a bit of a dick for someone looking to be treated kindly.

Today I was at trak auto getting some parts for my car and this lady was asking me about power steering fluid.. I answered her question and went outside to throw the shit in my car.. she came out and looked flustered once she popped the hood, so I showed her where the power steering pump was and how much to fill up the fluid. She was telling me how she thought the auto guys were trying to screw her over by charging like $800 to fix it, I told her it was just low on fluid, but if it started squeeling again to have it checked out by a different mechanic. Hey nothing special, but she seemed very grateful and it makes me feel good to help someone with their car even if it is just pouring some fluid in.

The other day or so while at work. I was driving from jobsite to jobsite and I picked up a hitch hiker. Was offered great conversation. The guy travel all around the country... he kept work as a river guide during season.. and the rest of the year he just lived life and travelled. I dropped him off by the library. That's where he was headed before spending the day at the beach. Made me realize how gettin' out of the daily grind is possible.
Usually I'm giving out money or buying people things without a second thought. Always if I have the supplies.. everybody in close proximity is gettin' high.
"The thing is, i never get it back. I figure what goes around comes around... Not always, not even most the time. I get discouraged and think WHY CANT PEOPLE BE NICE, then i get mean. I try and maintain my cool, but its frustrating... "
Yeah... this was a big thing for me too. I always ended up the one left alone or without. And oh yeah... I get pissed off... start thinking why the hell do I need to be so giving if I'm just gonna be shit on. But I know that giving with an open heart... seeing that other person in joy is what I want of reality... helps pull me out of the density because I'm willing to reach out. When I pay attention I notice everyday how I'm getting it back... I always seem to make it to where I'm going on time or they always seem to open a new registar when I'm standing in a long line. And I can about always now keep a kinda shit-eatin'-grin on my face & can find the humor in the reflections the world offers. Always love giving cunniligus... even if she doesn't reciprocate... the gaps, trembles, moans, or screams are enough to make me feel like I'm floating. Because I was apart of it. Peace.
