Happy Soul Food Friday!
This week:
Imagination is a very special ingredient in our soul food repertoire, and this piece was submitted by two separate sources (thanks Larry & Robin) to bring you joy and delight.
Remember when you were a little kid and how the power of your imagination kept you occupied for hours?
This little guy, with the support of his dad, acted on his imagination and built a whole arcade out of cardboard in East LA.
Sadly because of its location nobody came 😦
Then one equally imaginative customer decided to use a similarly important soul-food ingredient (a conscious act of kindness) to make this dream come true!
Watch this all the way to the end…
