Kindness in a Box

"A gift consists not in what is done or given, but in the intention of the giver or doer."
~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca

I was driving home from an evening activity and thinking that I needed to text my friend on the other side of the world.  To my great surprise, when I got home, there was a box from her.  And what a bonanza in that box!  She sent me several gifts -- things she knew I would really like -- and two beautiful cards.  Knowing what it takes to gather the gifts and make it to the post office, I was so grateful for not only the gifts, but also the thoughtfulness and effort.  She completely made my day.
