"No act of kindness, however small,
is ever wasted."
~ Aesop
When I think
of the word souvenir, I am reminded of the French expression, Je me souviens, which means, I
remember. When someone brings you a
souvenir from a trip, it means that they were thinking of you and that
thoughtfulness is as special as the gift itself. My mother always brings me something when she
travels, even when it's a short trip, even when she visits a place where I have
lived. After arriving from her most
recent trip on a late evening flight, my mother showed up a my house with gifts
for all of us. Mine was very special --
it was a glass paperweight with the Aesop quote on kindness.
