FOR THE WANT OF A POSTCARD, I was rewarded with a new and very dear friend.
Who knew? All I asked for was a postcard from the land of my husband's desire. I not only received a postcard but so much more. As if her friendship wasn't enough, the sweet thing sent gifts too!! ** A pictorial book of my friend's "state"; ** A calendar of her homeland; ** A bookmark; and ** Two itsy-bitsy "huggy" stuffed animals native only to her homeland. I hope she does not mind that I shared my joy with you. For it is not every day that someone so special comes into your life. I know she sent these things from her heart and not for a public pat on the back. For that reason, I shan't mention her name but will leave one more "little" hint. Remember this post: I'm one of those people who rarely buys things for themselves and am very easily pleased. I've always been happier to give than to receive things, so for my treat I decided to do something nice for someone else. DH took me shopping after my MRI yesterday and I bought something for someone who will get the shock of their life when it arrives in the mail. It definitely wasn't expensive but my joy will last from yesterday when I bought it, right through until it's arrival in a week or two. Each time I think of this person's surprise (and I hope happiness), I'll continue to feel good. That's the treat I chose. You should be feeling fantastic. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Anne. |
