The Invisible People

There are invisible people in everyone's life. Not little green men who sneak around, but people who are active in doing something that you don't see. These people are often minorities. Do you know who the invisible people in your life are? Do you take the time to make them just a little less invisible?
This morning as I pulled into the office, the cleaning lady was just getting into her car. She's one of the most invisible people in my life. She magically cleans the office when no one is around, puts everything back in its place and never misses a day. She deserves a huge thank you, but she never gets that.
Take some time today to consider the invisible people in your life, the person who mows the lawn at your favorite park, the person who cleans your favorite restaurant, or maybe it's the bagger at your grocery store. A few kind words can really go a long way to making someone have a good day.
