Boost

I was walking to Aldi to
pick up salted nuts
and salted crisps and
cereal.
I’d had
a shitty day.
On my way I
walked past a gym.
A guy in tight
shorts went ahead and
held the door open for me,
thinking I was
going in after him.
I wasn’t.
I’ve never been to the
gym in my life.
But I like to think
that, in the second our
paths crossed, this
man looked me up and down
and decided
I was the kind of person
that went to the gym.
Thanks man.
I needed
that.
