You Decide What This Means
I have a fascinating observation to report.
I was at the airport a couple of weeks ago, and the typical “airport stress” was in the air. It seemed that everyone was grumpy, and as I’m sure you all know the feeling… it’s so hard not to get sucked into that energy.
So, I’m sitting at the gate, waiting for my delayed flight with CNN playing on the overhead TV. Typical stuff. War, crap economy, and I think we even had a child kidnapping that day. All of this was pounding in, when it happened.
CNN closed with a piece about cute things falling asleep, a web site dedicated to adorable videos about things falling asleep. Instantly, the mood in the waiting area changed. It was lighter, people were laughing. This was to be expected.
What I didn’t expect, but still gives me chills to imagine, was that as the mood in the room lightened from the positive (and adorable) news story, people started to connect and talk to each other.
Do you have stories like this? How about a comment sharing them?
still waiting for my happy moment at the airport.

Funny. I’m sure you are. And, I hope you eventually get it!
