A Cup of Kindness

I saw an old friend today, someone I hadn't seen in years. She's sort of a former friend. And definitely a future one. She is a gal who drifted onto the periphery of my life, or I onto hers, and then for a variety of reasons, we drifted completely apart.

But I wanted to see her, I needed to see her. And so, lacking her cell number and her email address, I did the unthinkable: I looked her up in Public Records and knocked on her door.

She answered my knock. I said, "Hi, it's Kathie." She said, "aaah, Kathie. Come in!"

Before I could say a word about my reason for visiting, she offered me a cup of tea. She set the kettle on the stove and we hugged.

And we talked.

Three hours later, we hugged again. It was a long, warming hug, the sort you know you can trust.

Here's to You ~ people who are open to the past, the present and the future; who open doors, who share goodness and kindness and peace. oh! and a cup of tea..
