Above you see the first paragraph of the essay. The essay continues to describe how I encounter a young boy dressed in an elf costume hainding out candy. I explain why he made a lasting impression on me.

Did you ever have a brief chance encounter with a stranger? You may speak only a few words or none at all, but the encounter leaves a lasting impression. I have, and I am blogging about them in these brief essays. I'm only showing the first paragraph of the essays, ,along with a brief description of the essay, because I want to eventually publish the essays in a book. You might enjoy reading my first book of essays, "What Ifs, If Onlys, and So Whats".
Very moving and inspirational story about your encounter with the your "little elf". Perhaps one day you'll see him there again or another kid passing the joy of the seasons to the passersby. Always we as a society are always so busy that we often miss even the simple of things that can bring us the greatest joy in this fast-paced world. Take care and Happy Holidays!
