On Sunday I was on my way to my daughter's house for dinner, stopped at a red light, when I saw the man in the car behind me get out of his car, leave the door open, and come running up to my door. I was so shocked! What did I do? Did I cut him off? Was my music too loud? Did I have a flat tire? I turned off the music, although I never like to cut Michael off in the middle of a song, and opened my window.
The man said "Where did you get your Michael Jackson bumper sticker?"
Really???
I told him I had it custom made for me, and he wanted to know the name of the company. I told him, but I wasn't sure if the guy who made them for me even still worked there. As I was explaining this, the man had time to look at the inside of my car - the picture of Michael blowing me a kiss on my visor (it was a sunny day) the string of pictures hanging from my visor, the quote card hanging from my radio knob. I reached over and got an Ever After business card out for him. I told him to call me and I can try to get a bumper sticker for him. He said his daughter would love it, thanked me and ran back to his car.
Wow!!!! I was soooo excited. I know that whoever drives behind me must see Michael there, but I have never had anyone give me any kind of reaction before.
That was two days ago, and he hasn't called me. Did he lose my card? Or maybe I scared him with my Michaelmobile. He might not want his daughter to talk to me!! I'll keep you posted.
This is what I learned (again) from this.
Every little thing we do for Michael makes a difference. So often I feel like I am not enough, that what I do for him is so small. But it all adds up, and each of us DO make a difference in our own way.
