As I was walking towards my work (9:30am), I was looking down at the pavement because the sun was way too bright and shining down on my face, and suddenly, I hear the voice of a 3 year old (whom I did not know) saying hi. I look up just a little to see this sweet 3 foot small Asian girl with a cream white shirt and soft yellow shorts waving to me and smiling. Along with her dad on the side of her fixing his bike in the rack, locking it up. He smiled at her the way any father smiles at their child for doing a small sweet and innocent gesture. Those 5 seconds. That little moment. Brightened my entire morning.

Days until autumnal equinox: 24
