While grabbing a bite to eat on Sunday, I
couldn't help but to notice a bright, pink human figure seated in a distant
corner at the barstool of the Subway located inside my local Wal-Mart. Dipped
head-to-toe in what appeared to be pink body paint (or was it actually her
skin?), a large straw sombrero positioned upon long pink and blonde locks (half
and half), sat a jovial woman with her young daughter and husband. First
instinct, I think for all of us shoppers, was to gape at this rather peculiar
oddity, but then look quickly away if her eye contact caught yours; almost as if
an alien had spotted you peeping in on one of his top secret operations. I
couldn't help but to notice how this beautiful family sat and ate and laughed
and debated amicably about random things, with no particular care in the world.

After finishing my
flatbread chicken sandwich, I later caught sight of the pink woman again at the
jewelry section of the store, performing
magic tricks for her young daughter and a circle of friends the toddler had
gathered to watch her "Superhero" mommy. Then as quickly as the magical illusion
had been performed the pink-being flashed
over to help her husband adjust his newly purchased nose ring in the
mirror.
From over hearing
her dialog with shoppers and the employees that had begun to gather around, I
learned this colorful lady's name was ThePinkBlogger. She gave fanciful detail
on how she was a novice illusionist, however
she believed that the genuine magic was accomplished by her onlookers via the wide eyes of amazement and big smiles of
childlike glee that spread across their faces after her illusionary tricks were
performed. She explained that she existed off of the happiness she was missioned
to bring to others, even if their joy only lasted for one passing millisecond.
She further intrigued her audience by telling of
her current undertakings to help find
cure and promote awareness of Breast Cancer and National Hunger & Homelessness Issues. New passerby's whipped out their white i-phones to snap pictures and text themselves calendar
reminders of the ThePinkBlogger's magic show said to unfold at the Quincy Public
Library this coming December. I secretly also took out a small notepad out of my purse in just enough time to jot down
ThePinkBlogger.Com, which I could hear her sing out to everyone as she was
whisked away by her daughter who pleaded to now go down the toy aisle. I was
warmed by the candid expressions of her husband who likewise stared at his wife
in a peculiar, but pleasantly inquisitive gaze just
like all of us consumers did that afternoon.
Not sure how many
of you out there have also seen this whimsical pink woman and where, but one
thing I am certain we'd all probably agree is
that she gives you the tingles one would get from extraterrestrial
folklore told at bedtime, but yet somehow
her voice will warm you just enough that you might actually approach her
to squeak out a brief "hello",… if you
dare.....
