Thanksgiving and Christmas is finally over! Yes! Now we can all go back to our everyday life. 

I'm so full from all the great foods over the holiday. I can not eat anymore. With that being said, it's time to go to the store and spend my Christmas cash that I receive.

I got to the store and saw a homeless guy standing by the door. I didn't want to look at him, so I pretend to look the other way. As I was passing him by, he ask "sir can you spare some change?" I just try to ignore him and walk inside.

He went into the store. One of the sale guy came up to him and said "may I help you?" He didn't say one word.

The sale guy look confuse, as in he didn't know why the homeless man came in for. The sale guy ask again "may I help you?" 

The homeless man looked at him and said "Don't You Forget About Me." The sale guy didn't understand him and told him if he didn't want to buy anything, than please leave. 

The homeless guy smile and turn around and open the door and left, but right before he close the door he repeated "Don't You Forget About Me".

I suddenly have this strange feeling inside of me. It felt like that homeless guy took something inside of me. 

I'm no longer in the mood to shop, so I decided to leave. I open the door and there he was, the homeless guy. He smile and said "Don't You Forget About Me."

 I finally decided to look at him. Right there is when I saw in his eyes, he was suffering almost like he was about to cry. I felt this sadness inside of me. I smile and dug through my pocket and took out my Christmas money and handed it to him and said "I won't forget about you. 

He look at me, his eye lit up with a great big smile and said "thank you for remembering me too".

Through out the holiday we care for everyone, but after the holiday we, "included myself" forget about everyone else. Let's make it year round to not forget about everyone.
