"It's not so much our friends' help
that helps us, as the confidence of their help."
~ Epicurus
A mom I know
had to arrange travel for her children for a weekend competition in a city
several hours away. When she looked into
airfare, each ticket would cost nearly $300 -- and there were three tickets to
purchase. As she was researching travel
possibilities, she spoke to one of her dearest friends, who travels to the
destination city on a regular basis, about other airline options. He said that he had plenty of miles and would
be happy to get the three tickets for her.
She was surprised and appreciated it more than he could imagine. The mom ended up using her own miles on a
different airline, but was incredibly grateful for her friend's thoughtful and
generous offer.
