My 5 Minutes With Frog.

It brings me a comfort to know that I am blessed.

Beyond all things, I Am Blessed.

I was walking Tyson at the dog park today and I met a man. 
His back was to me as I approached him and his furry child that Tyson had already ran ahead to greet. 
As the man turned around he had the biggest smile on his face and an ascot around his neck, he was wearing a purple and green plaid shirt with these light colored denim jeans. 
I quickly said, "hello" and the man reached for his neck to speak and politely replied, "hello." in return.

I had a short and sweet conversation with him; 
Talked about the weather. 
Talked about Tyson. 
Spoke about the town we lived in.

At the end of our conversation he invited me to come listen to him play music with his band the next night.

It was obvious that this man loved life. Still grabbing it by the horns and taking control.

Before I walked away he asked my name. I smiled and told him, "Kat, and yours?"

He replied, "Frog, that's what they call me." 
He lowered his hand and just smiled.

Frog, you inspired me today. 
Inspired me to know that no matter how life is or what happens to me along the way...
To keep smiling and keep moving forward...

I hope life continues to be kind to you and I am thankful for our moment together.
