Went to my clinic today. There were a lot of brown people in the clinic today. I sat next to a portly brown skin lady. Together we waited our turn to be seen. Over by the door a young and very pretty little brown skin girl is dancing to the music only she can hear. She has all the moves, her feet move to the silent beat, her arms moving just so in the dance she has learned, her head sways from side to side, long hair swinging freely. Her back is to me, she finishes her dance, turns. I clap my hands together quietly. She smiles, comes to the woman sitting beside me. Leaning against the women she says to me "What is your name?" I start to say Eduardo, but I stop my self and say instead "Edward". "My name is Cindy, and this is my Grand mother."she replies. Grand mother and I smile at each other, sharing for a moment her precious Grandaughter.
