Yesterday, I went to the Minnesota State Fair, aka, Minnesota's Great Get Together. It was Saturday with nice weather so the place was packed. I came across this old guy who was trying to walk across against the wave of people moving perpendicular to him. With his cane in one and and a cold drink in another, he shuffled slowly without confidence trying to get to a bench to sit and enjoy his drink. We really became worried that he might simply fall and get trampled by the crowd so I went up to him and offered some help. All I really did was serve to clear the way. We found him a bench to sit. He introduced himself and thank us for helping him. He saw my camera and offered me to take his portrait there on the bench. For the first time, he smiled. I thanked him and he said, "Have a blessed day." At that moment, I felt that I did.
