The Kindness of an Evening Call

"The greatest gift is a portion of thyself."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

On a recent evening, I texted a friend.  I thought her daughter's birthday was coming up.  I was off by a few weeks.  We texted back and forth a couple of times and then she called.  She said that she figured we would just go back and forth via text, and why not call.  That rare phone call!  We hadn't talked in weeks and we had a nice time catching up.  I truly appreciated her opting for that old-fashioned method of communication.  It was a gift.
