"But what doesn't die is the love we give to others. There is no end to that."
~ Gloria Whelan
I recently
spoke to a former colleague on the telephone and she asked how my children were
doing. As we were talking, I glanced at
my bookshelf and saw a small scrapbook that she had given more more than 14
years ago. She had decorated the pages,
so all I had to do was adhere the photos to the pages and I had an immediate
scrapbook of one of my children's first months at home. I love the scrapbook as does the child who is
featured in it. I mentioned to my former
colleague how very much we appreciate the book, and she and I marveled at how
much time had gone by. The lasting power of
kindness never ceases to amaze me.
