You were the main reason I began to write this post. You've been my mentor and steady friend for 45 years - can you believe it? I hope the twins and I can come see you next year. It's been too long. Thanks for being such a loving and steady force in my life. I love you in all ways, Cathy (your third daughter!)

I think of those chance meetings that had I been there a minute later might never had happened.

I love to be the sender of such things. It is very rare to have that returned, though. Recently my best friend in the US sent me a package as a surprise which brightened my week. 🙂

As part of NaBloPoMo I try to comment on as many participating blogs as I can, and I also add participating blogs to my feed reader.

So I’m just dropping by to let you know I’ve added your blog to my feedreader, I’m reading you loud and clear, I have a link up going at my place so my readers can find participating blogs which you are more than welcome to add your blog link to.

Looking forward to seeing your posts, and you’ll likely see me drop by again during November.

Happy NaBloPoMo to you!

Your words speak to so many and your writing is a voice of Hope and Encouragement. I am more proud of you than you could ever know. Aren't memories wonderful? "Mom"

I was given a prayer shawl when my best friend passed away in February. I love it. A friend of my mothers just made me a teddy bear and a pillow out of the shirt my father wore in my wedding and from his robe. I was overcome with emotion. I want to learn to make them...

That quote and the photo reminded me that everything we do is little a stone rippling outward on a pond. We can never know for sure how our actions will impact others but I think we need to remember that they ALWAYS do. As writers we actually carry that obligation with everything we write. Your words today have certainly done that for me and everyone else who have read them. Thank you! ~Kathy

I'm sure there are many, many things -- but one that leapt to mind was from many years ago. We were going to put our Atlanta house on the market. I needed to stay up all night painting. A friend called out of the blue and asked if our then 3 year old could stay with them the night, knowing I had been working hard trying to make improvements on the house. He had never spent the night out before but I thought -- how wonderful. He could be happy and I could work in his room as late as I needed.

You do these kindnesses to people every day! You are the epitome of a kind and gentle soul, dear one.

How true about women friendships and how important they are as we age.

I can't tell if anyone understood that my 3 friends are related (in photo.) A mom and twin girls, all of who are more than dear to me. Although they live far from one another, and from me, they were in sync in their kind and gentle ways.

I am sure you have similar friendships, Elin, because you are such a powerfully loving person. That comes through your writing.
