              MY MORNING WALK HERO

              I wake up early in the mornings and go for an hour
              walk in the park where I meet so many charming
              people. Every morning, I see the same people and

              feel their energy. There is a young lady with a
              small dog. She grins all the time and makes me
              happy. There is an old man sitting at the same
              bank every time reading his morning paper. There
              is that young guy jogging every morning with full
              concentration and an old lady feeding the birds.
              Her aura is magnificent. She really makes me feel better.

              However, there is a hero, a real hero whom I first didn’t understand what he was doing. Every morning,
              at 7 a.m. he is walking towards me with a garbage bag which is hand-tooled. He is picking up the
              trash from the street. Now I know his name, his name is Bob Hammond, a technician, working in the
              local hospital downtown. He goes to work at 10 a.m. every weekday and before going to the hospital,
              he cleans his neighbourhood. He is an everyday hero keeping our world clean. I really admire him.
