It reminds me of the people we pass on our walk each morning. We go walking each day between 8 and 9 a.m., the same route and often pass by the same people. On a first meeting they appear shy, hardly look up, but we're always relaxed and hopefully appear friendly, hubby will lean over and pat the dogs ... Soon the faces we see over and over relax, and it's waves and "Good morning," and snatches about the weather. I love watching how the faces of the people we pass soften over time.
