Blessings

Here's a little personal story
that will hopefully brighten your day.

There's been a lot of ugly lately.
A fair amount of stress
and an abundance of WTF's.
As I was sitting at work yesterday
after an 'exciting' start to my day,
feeling the usual pangs of duck survival
(calm on the surface, paddling like hell underneath),
answering the same question for the millionth time,
explaining the same process for the zillionth time;
my phone offered a muted ding.
After I finished my task,
I grabbed my phone and scrolled to find
the source of said ding.
Lo and behold ...
a name I have adored for a good 50 years
with a brief and beautiful note
of nothing more than kindness and love
and thoughts of me.

People,
take a moment,
focus on the good things,
the cherished souls,
the happy memories.
Send someone a note or text.
Just a simple "Hello"
or "Thinking of You".
What a fabulous place it would be
if we all took a moment
to share a little love.
