An OK kind of day today. Went to church. Following the service I was at the table where the water and lemonade are. As I was serving myself, a homeless woman came along, and she asked me to pour some lemonade into a cup. So I did, but I wanted to say something to her. I ended up being very tongue-tied. I felt terrible about that because I didn't know what to say. I wanted to say something helpful to her. It seemed like the people didn't talk to her, also. I personally feel that being homeless can happen to anyone, including me. Unfortunately these days it can happen to those who mean well in life and just have bad breaks that's overpowering to them. I hope and pray that I would get another chance to see her again. I wanted a chance to do something good for someone, and it slipped right by me. My problem is that I am very shy with strangers.
Took a two hour bike ride today and it was a nice day to do it. But I had struggled a lot with health anxiety. My friend and I got together after the church service only briefly. We had a discussion about my little health issue that I have and it upset me a lot.
At least I have tomorrow off from work, which is nice. My friend and I plan on getting together. I hope that tomorrow will go better than Saturday.
