The Kindness of a Photo

“Every photo you take communicates something about a moment in time – a brief slice of time of where you were, who you were with, and what you were doing.”
~ Kevin Systrom

I love it when my friends send me photos from their travels -- it truly is the closest thing to being there.  On a recent morning, I was surprised to wake up to a photo via text from a friend traveling in Europe.  It was a photo of a tombstone with my family’s name on it.  My friend had been walking through a cemetery in a small town when she noticed our family name on the gravestone, and thought I might like to see it, too. I appreciated her not only thinking about me, but also sending a photo that she knew would be meaningful to me.
