3 of 30: Early Valentine

I received an early valentine from a complete stranger today…yeah I thought it was a bit strange too. Let me start at the beginning. There is an older gentleman that sells flowers and seasonal wares (holiday stuff around Christmas time, Valentine’s Day stuff close to Valentine’s Day, etc.) near my job that always says hello to me; so to be polite, I say hello back. I really try to speak to people that take the time to speak to me, as long as they don’t seem overly creepy or violate my personal space. Treat others the way you want to be treated right? So when I passed flower/candy guy today he says, “Wait, I want to give you this because I won’t be around next week,” and hands me this Valentine's Day card (in plastic). I should also mention that since the card was encased in plastic that it was blank, but I think that's besides the point.

I don't normally accept gifts from strangers, but since I have to pass this gentleman every day en route to work and he didn’t ask me for anything in return, I smiled said thank you and took the card. I appreciate thoughtful gestures, even one’s from total strangers that are slightly weird... but nice.
