"I do not know, how I am."


I asked the 103 year old woman, "how are you today?" With a smile, she slowly responded, "I do not know, how I am." She paused for a moment and continued, "I just follow my day, I do not know how I am, and how are you?" I replied, "I am doing well." She looked at me with that wonderful smile again, "that is very good." She stared at me as she ws wheeled along the corridor the building.

By asking someone from the heart "how a person (he/she) is?" surely will bring certain joy in a person life. Let us continue to be generous with our words to encourage, affirm and support others.
