Joe Is A People Person

Of course that can get you in trouble these days When nothing is as it seems.

That Joe, he's a bad one!
Don't you feel sorry for him? Yeah, me neither!

I'll let Joe tell you.


Reach Out!

As I walked down the busy sidewalk, knowing I was late for an important interview, my eye fell upon one of those unfortunate, homeless vagabonds that are found in every city these days. Wearing what can only be describes as rags, carrying every worldly possession in two plastic bags, my heart was touched by this persons condition. Some people turned to stare. Others quickly looked away as if the sight would somehow contaminate them. Recalling some long ago Sunday School admonition to "care for the sick, feed the hungry and clothe the naked," I was moved by some powerful inner urge to reach out to this unfortunate person. Yes, where some people saw only rags, I saw a hidden beauty.

A small voice inside my head called out, "Reach out, reach out!"

So I did..........

I get out of the hospital in about 3 months. It would be nice to get a card or maybe a visitor.




Hey Joe, here's your sign!
