Surprises That Make It Okay.


This week has been bad.  Really not nice at all.  And then this evening, little glimmers of light shined through the darkness.  I'm sure the ones who shared with me didn't even know how much their kindness lit up my tiny piece of this world.  Oh, but light it they did.

Empathy and kind words from an acquaintance at just the right time. Someone who I now consider a friend.

The gift of chocolate.  Just one small piece for no reason other than to share.  Simple.

Someone who took the time to offer advice and encouragement to my tenderest, quietest child.

Stinky little boys who live in the moment, not worrying about "later".

All who try to welcome, accept, and give friendship to our family.
