I was born in the Midwest. It is called the heartland for a reason. The folks out here are mighty friendly.
Out and about yesterday, running errands, I encountered such warmth and tenderness from several locals. Perfect strangers, with a willingness to help and serve with a smile not just on their face, but radiating from their heart. It makes me glad I am from here.
What quality or characteristic is associated with where you are from? Can you celebrate it? Ki to Happiness brings the best of the Midwest with her and leaves the rest.
