Jay, the full circle of life you described is the deep truth that the corporate world tries to take away from us. Isolated at our desk during the best hours of daylight, working towards maximum profits for the ruling class, we worker bees are deprived of the chance to get out and build community! And it is in the human connections we build where true treasures lie--the desire to help one another and to uplift human dignity! In those conversations I felt that dignified compassion was exchanged. One of the guys even asked how he could contribute as a volunteer for the food pantry. In this world where money is required for survival, it's heartening to know that it isn't everything, and that the best things in life remain priceless. ❣️
