A dark and chilly evening walk slowly making steps home. I gave all of the hats knitted and loomed out to those in need. All I have is my Santa hat. Thinking about it, I don’t have gloves, and I remembered that I promised my elderly neighbor a hat.
I noticed a makeshift bed in a doorway. The man was dancing and singing at the top of his lungs in the middle of the street, leaving his bed abandoned. I pressed the crosswalk button. I slowly walked out into the street with my crutch and led him to the curb, where he continued dancing and singing.
He did not have a hat so I left him a gift. I have one more Santa hat in the trunk of my car. It’s time to make a hat for my neighbor as I sit and loom in my warm apartment with a cup of tea.
Merry Christmas, my friend and may you have a good night!
Side Note: Many of the people in my neighborhood are living examples of helping in their way. However, I do not encourage others to put yourself in harms way or an unsure situation. If you are unsure how to help, call the SPD non-emergency line.
I called it before the weather changed. A man was naked. He took a shower with the hose in front of my apartment and asked me for a bar of soap and towel. There were no apparent clothes to be found. I waited for the police cruiser. The police helped him. God Bless, the SPD!
