The Kindness of Thoughtful Souvenirs

"Truth is a deep kindness that teaches us to be content in our everyday life and share with the people the same happiness."
~ Khalil Gibran

My lovely friend just returned from a vacation in Europe.  From what she shared, it was more like a religious pilgrimage.  She visited a number of religious sites, including Lourdes in southern France.  And being the lovely friend that she is, she remembered her friends along the way.  Another mom and I were gifted with a number of beautiful items for ourselves and our families, including holy water from Lourdes, prayer cards and rosaries.  And for her Nervous Nellie friend, she brought back a prayer card of St. Christopher, the patron saint of travelers.
