The sky was cloudier till later this morning, making the day cooler overall. Even when the white gave way to blue, the winds that played with my hair kissed me with coolness. A car salesman shook my hand as Mr. W and I strolled by, greeting me as “Smiley.” The man and I walked about the neighborhood for almost an hour and wandered through the many blocks of car dealerships displaying their colorful mechanical wares like an exotic bazaar. Bargaining was going on around us, but we were content with just the air slipping through our fingers of one hand with the other’s hand in the other. Commenting on the different cars, appearances, gas mileage, improvements (or not) over the years, we ended the talk on how all that is needed to feel content sometimes is a walk in the sunshine with your loved one, and a breeze to dry your sweat off.
