Nice post, G2G. I liked your previous post as well, where you were discussing your neighborhood. We have a string of stores like that by our house currently. They’re in a worn down strip mall, and the shop owners and their customers will come out and talk on the sidewalk. It’s really cool. Like a blast from the past.
Thank you! That was the best time of my life. My Mom was a cancer survivor, and two of my aunts would come each day to help out. They used to sing in the choir together and we’d get to hear the hymns they practiced the night before. I was blessed too, being able to spend more time with my Dad than most kids got. We even used to get invites to the block parties from the people across the alley! One big family. God, what a blessing!
