"So this is a picture of me (on the left) and Darren (a homeless guy from Liverpool). Every day on my way to work I see Darren. He says hello, we have a chat, and I go get him a cup of coffee. He's a massive Everton fan and I'm a massive Liverpool fan, but we always have good banter about the football.
Darren used to have a job, and a girlfriend, but he lost all that after his girlfriend died and he went into depression. Now he lives on the streets in Liverpool.
So I decided, that instead of spending money on stupid things at Christmas (like cards and expensive food) I'd use the money to get Darren and I tickets to an EVERTON match. When I told him he burst out crying and gave me the best hug ever. We had a great time at the match and he was so grateful (he even offered to buy the coffee this time).
Anyway, the reason I'm posting this today is that Darren is no longer on the streets. He's got a council flat and is working part time. Last week he had me round for dinner. I'm so proud of him.
I posted this story to show you that a little bit of kindness can go so far and help get someone on the right track again. I used to drink coffee with Darren on the streets, then I did it at Goodison Park, and now we drink it in his flat.

Love can be loud and splashy. It can make grand gestures, big enough to be seen from the street.

It can sparkle on fingers and dangle from chains of gold and platinum.

It can shout its presence from the rooftops, down on a knee or written on a banner behind a plane flying over the arena.

But it can also sneak in, unannounced. It can hide in the corners, where, if you’re not paying attention, you might just miss some of its very best parts.

My husband cleaned out our refrigerator today. The act itself was unremarkable. He’s a teacher, and though he’s still toiling away at grad school this summer, while the school at which he teaches is closed, he’s been on a mission to do one project in the house every day. So yesterday it was the refrigerator.

And in the smallest, most seemingly inconsequential details, I saw it … plain as day. It was right there in the way that he moved everything that I use the most to the front, where, at five feet tall, I would be able to see it, and everything he uses the most to the back, where, at six feet tall, he’d have no trouble finding it.

Sometimes love shouts. And sometimes, if you look really carefully, it’s in the quiet crevices of every day life.

Even in the fridge. 💕
