A Love Letter to my friend Linda from her husband

"And today it was raining and it started to rain a lot.
 I was walking to the subway and there was this old lady with
a cane walking real slow, getting all wet, and she didn't
even have a plastic head thingy that old ladies usually have.
 And so I gave her my umbrella and she was so happy and smiley and a
couple behind me looked at me in amazement as I quickly got drenched.
 I did it because you have made me better and more considerate.
So I give you credit for another good deed (and because we’re the same).
It was a good umbrella and I don't know where it came from and I think
it was yours, not sure, but I will replace it.
Maybe we should have a reserve of umbrellas for occasions such as this."
