Caught up with a fello street roamer, spreading some Christmas cheer in the Launceston mall today, who graciously allowed me to have a photo taken with him. Smelling a little worse for wear due to the unprecedented summer weather, he rewarded my playing with a Candy Cane that added some extra decoration the harp.
Many people were about their Christmas shopping and bargain hunting, and I found that the festive season does indeed lend itself to some incredibly generous acts, and expressions of appreciation.
This dear old man, who has commented and encouraged me many times over the several years of me frequenting the Launceston mall, today very kindly gave me the rough base of an experimental harp, as well as donating 20 dollars!
I have an interest in peoples hands (not a fetish) and loved the hard working craftsmen appearances of this kindly gentleman.
I left the car park with a much fuller car than when I arrived, and a heart filled with "...happiness and joy..."
