Smile and be happy
"Hello, how's your day?"
"Not bad."
"If it's not bad, why isn't it good?"
The man stares at me, not quite sure what to say.

 Man from Gozo. Photo source: Flickr / Andrea D'Alba "Good morning, Madam," said the old man, smiling, as he stood at the entrance of his house. It was one of those traditional entrances with two heavy wooden doors and a decorative brass knocker on each. Beyond it was the "antiporta," a more delicate door with large glass windows, lace curtains maintaining a smidgen of mystery about the interior of the house.
"Bonġu," I replied, smiling back. |
