The Kindness of Being Understood

"One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood."
~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Recently, I was not able to attend a school activity for one of my children.  It made me very sad.  I texted one of my dear mom friends.  She didn't tell me that I shouldn't feel badly or that those things happen.  Instead, she replied simply, "I am sorry."  I could not have asked for more.
