Two things stand like stone:
Kindness in another's trouble,
Courage in your own."
~ Adam Lindsay Gordon
A friend of mine had surgery recently. Her recuperation will mostly likely take a
few weeks and includes not driving for a while.
I thought I could perhaps pick her up for lunch to get her out of the
house for a bit. But she told me that she couldn't because she
was getting a ride to the hospital to see a friend's husband who is unexpectedly
facing major surgery. My friend is the
kind of person who walked out of the hospital less than 24 hours after giving
birth, so I have no doubt that her courage and strength will speed her along
the recovery process. I also believe
that her generous heart will serve her well -- kindness has a way of blessing
the one who shares it, too.
