"I've learned that people will
forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never
forget how you made them feel."
~ Maya Angelou
A couple of
weeks ago on a Friday afternoon, I reached out to a friend from high school on
a community issue. This is not someone
with whom I communicate regularly. In
fact, I had to look in our alumnae directory for her number. Not knowing if I had a current number, I left
a message anyway. Within a couple of hours,
she texted me to say that she was at a conference, but that she could step out
if I needed to speak with her immediately.
Otherwise, she said she could call me on her drive back to town the next
day. I have always respected this
woman's kindness, but it still surprised me.
