Happy Thought 1

I have been feeling lonely and homesick lately and somewhat depressed so I thought I would start trying to find things around me that can put a smile on my face. Peter Pan taught me that happy thoughts can make me fly so why not start my flying lessons.

I volunteer once a week at a place called New Horizons. This place provides educational, life and work assistance for adults with mental and physical disabilities. I do not work with the clients directly but I help in the fundraising department. Today as I was walking through the campus I noticed something, everyone there was smiling. Nothing such as color, race, religion, age or disability mattered to them. A few of the clients actually were coupled off which was really nice because most of the couples were interracial. Why can they put differences aside but the "normal" population has to build walls based on their differences?
