My mother and grandmother were well known for their thank you notes, appreciation notes, and notes of personal thought. How important to take the time to put on paper how one cares…..
A note conveys more than the moment, it is something that can be held, reflected, kept to return to that moment…
This week I realized that those moments of writing down my sentiments are a gift to me, to treasure the moment to pray for the person, think of them in their joy or pain and to touch them quietly …..perhaps a day or two after the event has passed.
Growing into lovely….learning to slow down and deepen the relationships we encounter by taking time to care.
