a beautiful love story…real and deep…gifts of the heart…a real Knowing of one another…
Believing that fulfillment comes from experiences, relationships, and good health, Len and I don’t typically exchange gifts.
Recently he made me a beautiful breakfast of heart-shaped blueberry pancakes and delivered it on a tray before I got out of bed.
I filled a pail of water to catch the reflection of the sky and gave it to him — wishing him, a pilot, a lifetime of safe flight as he soars through “his” sky.
What’s the most meaningful non-material gift you’ve ever received?
