The man at the corner.

I was driving along taking Albert to see his doctor. We were talking about what he had done in school so far that day. We were coming up to a traffic light when I saw this man standing at the corner waiting for the light to change so he could cross. He was obivously talking or singing to himself very loudly. My first reaction was to roll up the windows and lock the doors. I didn't though and boy am I glad I didn't. The light changed to red and the car in front of us slowed to stop at the line. Then I realized he had wires coming from his ears and he was definitely singing. Then I heard what he was singing. It stopped my heart for a minute. I can't remember what it was now but it was definitely a christian song. He was singing and praising God with his hands in the air at a busy intersection. It was a wow moment. I felt horrible for thinking the worse of this man. I thought he looked a bit crazy and here he was shamelessly singing praises. It made think "wow could I so boldly do something like that".
So this man a crazy man that was waving his hands about wildly and singing...... well let's just say performing musicly isn't in his future quickly became someone I admired.
