I have a friend who has been going through a truly tough time, she works everyday, has a child who has recently gone through such a horrifying ordeal; we feared we might loose her. To add to this after working a full day, and worrying about her child’s life, she then goes home to care for her bedridden mother.
She hates to cook and so my fantastic mum dropped off a macaroni cheese one night, she was so appreciative, I asked a friend to drop off a lasagna another night and then I made her soup for dinner another night, with teary eyes she expressed her gratitude, she was so grateful not to have tocook, not to have another thing to worry about, that that little bit of effort went a loooooooooong way.
So I challenge you all in the next few weeks to mean it when ask someone how “they are” and to take a few minutes out of your week to do something small for someone else, for you it will be easy and simple but for them it could mean the world, and who knows maybe one day the favor will be returned and even if it isn’t, I bet it will make you feel fantastic!
Have a happy week and be the rainbow at the end of someone elses road…
Ps. Her child is finally on the road to recovery, but I might just drop off some supper at some point this week anyway :-)
