My Fondest Memories
As a delivery driver, I had a right to that space.
I calmly requested him to allow me to park.
I had time sensitive deliveries, but he said, “No!”
It was a loading zone designed for people like myself.
But it was Christmas, and parks were very difficult to find.
I was rather dumfounded until I remembered the season.
I think that he was dumfounded with what I next said to him.
In a pleasant tone, I said, “Come on man, it’s Christmas!”
He sat up in his vehicle and drove away.
I cannot remember a more pleasant memory.
