Kindness, Thoughtfulness and Generosity

“Every minute of every hour of every day you are making the world, just as you are making yourself, and you might as well do it with generosity and kindness and style.”
~ Rebecca Soinit

A couple of months ago, my steadfast friend saw a necklace that she really liked on a mom I know.  I don’t know this mother well, but I asked her if she remembered where she had gotten it, so that I could try to get it for my friend.  I ran into the mother at a school event on a recent evening.  “You asked me about the necklace, right?” she asked.  And then she took a box out of her purse and gave it to me.  It was the necklace, so that I could give it to my friend.  Kind.  Thoughtful.  Generous.
