I am amazed at the human spirit.
This past weekend we were in Branson Mo. We went to Silver Dollar City early on Saturday morning. I go early to have some of those wonderful pastries in the bakery located near the front entrance. As we passed through the entrance the first thing I saw was a line of people waiting to check out an electric scooter. I recognized immediately that those folks had come early for a much different reason than I had. Some of the guests were elderly but not all. Health reasons of all kinds caused them to need help getting around the park. If you have ever been to Silver Dollar city, you know there are hills. With any disability it would be extremely difficult to get around. It seemed that nothing was going to stop them from having some fun and enjoying life.
I really did not feel guilty for getting to the park early to enjoy my pastry but it sure caused me to once again be thankful for all of my blessings and especially the ability and health to come and go as I please.
My point is that I have a lot of respect for people who just “keep on Keepin on”.

My thoughts exactly. When I needed to use a scooter in the stores, I appreciated the able-bodied customers who left them for me and other people in need of them.
