Spread Love!
So back to writing here only after a mere 2 years! Well, let's say I just took a Covid-19 break. 😛
I just thought I'd try to write something here every day about something that's happening in life. It may be just even a small paragraph of some event or a feeling I've had on a day. So, let's go.

My wife and I went to spend an evening at the Church Street in Bengaluru today. One of the things we have been thinking about doing for a while is to visit the very popular Blossom Book House here. After having spent around an hour and 40 minutes there, we walked down Brigade Road and happened to enter 5th Avenue Mall. My wife was getting hungry (as usual) and we decided to get a roll (wrap) from Tottos Pizza.
A security personnel was responsible for crowd control here. Customers who order food from the 4-5 shops here tend to block the entrance to the mall. The security personnel politely asks people to clear the way to the entrance to the mall by asking them to stand on the sides of the entrance.
While my wife was ordering the roll from Tottos Pizza, I waited near the shop. It was then that I witnessed something that prompted me to write this blog post.
A middle-aged couple bought a box of regular sized pizza. They approached the security personnel and offered him a slice of the pizza. The security personnel promptly refused to accept the food. Maybe he was shy. Maybe he was not supposed to accept things from customers. Maybe could be any reason. Anyhow, the couple tried to insist that the security take the pizza slice, but he refused. But it seemed like the couple had made up their mind, in goodwill, to give the pizza slice. After insisting for a couple of more times, the security eventually accepted the offer. He took the pizza slice and walked a few meters away from the mall to the footpath. He then quickly ate the pizza holding it away from his workplace, seemingly not wanting someone to see him eat.
A few minutes later he was back to work and continued ushering people to the side of the mall entrance. Only difference now is that he started working with a nice smile on his face!
It's really the small things that sometimes make people happy. Spread love people, spread love! 💕
