G r a t i t u d e

In the corner of my shop hangs a photograph

of my mom and dad on their wedding day…

true love in shades of ivory and lace,

smiles taken from the silver screen -

a favorite black and white.

February lends us a special day to love -

to take time for thoughtfulness -

to live in the moment …

knowing that a simple gift of kindness

is so worth the effort.

Gratitude is found

in believing that we have an opportunity every day

to deliver a secret message,

a gift of our heart to someone who makes us smile.

Make goodness happen …

you won’t be sorry you did!
