“The simple act of caring is heroic.”
~ Edward Albert
Preparing to
evacuate for Hurricane Irma, I remembered evacuating for another hurricane
probably close to 20 years ago. I was
going to my parents’ house and I invited a friend who lived in my same
beachside building to join us. All these
years later, I still recall her being the perfect hurricane house guest. In addition to bringing her own toiletries
and belongings, my friend brought additional paper goods, her own water and a
number of snacks to share with everyone.
Although she has since moved away, I texted my friend today to say that
I still remembered her incredible thoughtfulness. She remains my inspiration as I prepare to
become a house guest this time.
