Someone just today, posted a wonderful story about his Mom, Mollie. I wrote to this man how his story so much reminded me of my Mom, Grace. He wrote of kindness; perhaps the world can use more reminders of our experiences WITH kindness, so here’s a story -
Grace was on oxygen for the last 8 years of her life. There were many caretakers, and equipment workers, people in and out of the house all the time. Mom was kind, funny, and had a sense of humor that bordered flirtation, with everyone! On top of making others feel welcome, she believed in validating people, and unconditional love. She actively listened, and she gave solid advice. Caretakers and the equipment folks wanted to simply spend time with her, and laugh.
I am thankful for the exact way she was. Kindness will get you the best jokes! And laughter will fill your heart.❤️❤️❤️
