Leave Your Personality In The Window

My son and I were on a train today.  He had a little note pad and a pen, making some drawings.  Then he wrote something on a clean page and showed it to me.  He tore out the page, folded it and slipped it into the gap at the bottom of the window frame so that it was poking out. It said:

I am happy, funny, vegetarian and 11 years old.  What are you like?  Leave your personality in the window.

That was the first of many notes he left all over the place today, including Tate Modern and Wagamamas.  The one that most amused me – slipped under the card label on a beef and tomato sandwich:  
‘Try the Cheese Ploughmans, it’s much better!”    :-)

    Cute! I think life would be much more fun/interesting if more people did this…

    Take care,

    I love this. I was thinking earlier about how hard it is to put yourself out there and share, even in a good way. Think I’m going to follow your son’s example :)

    This is an excellent idea and a bit similar to something I was thinking of doing if the ‘One Hundred Days to Make Me A Better Person’ project comes around again.

    As Bugsy Malone said: “You give a little love and it all comes back to you…” :)
