The Elderly
Today I was back at the Salvation Army helping hand out food to senior citizens with some nice people from the D.O.C.. These nice people also happen to be known as inmates, but they were cool and polite to us. After initially setting up the table that holds the free hand outs from BB&B, we sat down to eat breakfast. Then I handed out some different things to those who needed them. I felt quite useless most of the day, and didn't feel like I had accomplished anything to make anyone's life easier or for the better. Maybe I did I don't know. I just wish I could have done something more. I guess one thing I know I did was bring a smile to some of the inmates faces as I did an impromptu performance of "One" while singing the song. Of course after I noticed that I was being watch I promptly stopped and continued to hum different songs throughout the day. I guess a smile is more than nothing, and I'll take it, but I still wish there was more I could have helped out with.
