Names Numbers, Announcements, YHC took us out
NMS — On our first short run, we noticed another guy coming toward us with something in his hand — later we noticed it was in a brown bag and the guy was definitely walking and talking and he seemed more than a little drunk. He asked us a question about what we were doing — not sure how we responded — he said something about falling and getting a bad spot on his leg from the fall. He continued on and we watched as we did our COP to make sure he was okay (and he didn’t try to go for one of our cars). He disappeared into the trees on the other side of the AO. Back in the day, YHC might have made fun of someone like that. Now, YHC just has pity on a guy who is obviously trying to cope with some pain in his life by drinking his sorrow away. YHC wonders what kind of pain he was dealing with — a bad breakup, loss of job, loss of a loved one, etc. At the end of the workout, Mr Holland noticed a rainbow in the sky — it was pretty bright — the rainbow was a promise from God, a symbol of hope for something better on the horizon. YHC is hopeful that the guy staggering around this morning has some glimmer of hope that today will be better than yesterday. YHC knows that a little hope can go a long way.
