Today I had a medical appointment in The Hub section of The Bronx. As I was exiting my bus, the driver told me that this borough, in particular SoBro, was not a rose garden but quite the sewer hole. It broke my heart to hear those words!
So, on to my appointment I walked with his comments fresh on my mind so much so that I shared them immediately with my new health counselor. She fully agreed with the bus driver and then asked me why I moved to The Bronx. I shared with her how I moved here to help the people of The Bronx and because I love this area deeply. She seemed a bit befuddled as to how that could possibly be. Truth be told, in my heart, the people of this borough will NEVER be sewer rats but always breathtaking varieties of flowers!
