“Wherever
there is a human being, there is an opportunity for kindness.”
~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca
School form
deadlines remind me that summer is coming to an end. Goodbye to slower days, less running around,
no rushed breakfasts or lunches packed in a hurry… On a recent dark and stormy afternoon, I called
one of my children’s school to see until what time the office was open on the
last day of the deadline. I held my
breath as I waited for the response from the person who answered. And then the clouds parted – at least, in my
mind. “Given the weather, why don’t you
drop them off tomorrow?” the woman on the other end of the phone said. Really?
Yes, she assured me. I was
thrilled. And just like that, this woman
whom I’ve never met greatly improved my day.
