A Pink Lady

I did not even get her name.  I was in the grocery store which, despite my best efforts, I seem to find myself in at least once daily.  My little family eats like a Biblical plague of locusts.  Seriously, it is not normal.  Anyway, I was on my way out when I discovered this woman sitting on a bench waiting for whomever she was with to finish shopping.  I stopped in my tracts because my little one has trained me to notice all things pink.  And here was this woman, wearing brown scrubs trimmed in pink, with pink and white nails, a delicate hint of pink eye shadow underneath her brows, and rocking varying shades of light and dark pink in her close cut hair.  Moreover, there was a radiance about her which I found captivating.  I could not help but ask for her picture and explained that my little girl, who was in school, would flip when she saw her.  I told the Pink Lady of my little one’s love for all things pink.  Graciously, and without hesitation, she obliged.  People often talk about auras.  I suspect she would have forced a psychic to squint.  The Hollywood actress and humanitarian Audrey Hepburn once said, “Pink isn’t just a color, it’s an attitude!”  If I had to describe it I would say it was happy, sassy, and kind.  And now I have proof, because today I discovered a pink lady.
