I walked past a guy today that was talking to some imaginary enemy in the air in front of him: “Fuck you! Yes you! Fuck you! And YOU (looking at me now) what are you looking at?! Fuck you!” I smiled at him. Just smiled and laughed a bit, too, as in a funny laugh, laughing with him about his imaginary “friend”… and… he smiled back. I was as surprised as he was. I was eating some bread and simply said – now walking so close to him that our shoulders almost touched – “do you want some bread? It’s really nice.” “Yes. Where are you from?”.. We shared some bread while still walking, some more smiles and I kept walking my pace. He was trotting behind me now, quiet… A smile from your heart can change the world.“
