Kindness in a Voice

"The human voice is the organ of the soul."
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I hadn't spoken to my friend on the other side of the world in weeks.  Toward the end of a somewhat crazy day during which I had wished more than once for her presence, I texted her to ask if she could talk.  "How did you know I was thinking about you?" she immediately texted back.  We ended up talking for more than an hour and through my evening errands... through the pharmacy, to pick up dinner...  It was a longer conversation than usual and exactly what I needed on that kind of a day.  Just the sound of her voice warms my heart and lifts my spirits.
