#523 – December 2025

I ran into a coworker I had not seen for while; I retired about a year ago. He was standing behind a table of canned and non-perishable goods in front of the grocery store. There were a few empty chairs and two full grocery carts. Because of the empty chairs, I asked, “Where are the kids? “He replied, “I’m covering the table for them while they are out getting lunch.’’ He proceeded to explain that they were collecting food to share with people in need.

    Interesting contrast in the photo. Your paragraph about your former colleague and collecting food for people in need points to a prevalent situation these days.
