It is such an amazing feeling when you are given the opportunity to do something meaningful for someone else. Especially when you don't realize what you have done until later. It is amazing how some things come into your life and suddenly for some reason it all makes sense and feels right. For the past week a friendship has been formed under unusual circumstances, yet through it the true gift came...not in any shape or form, but by being. Being a friend, being an ear to listen, and a rock to support...sometimes it is not the person who is need, but the person providing that gains the ultimate gift. It very much humbles you to learn that you are truly wanted and needed.
The act of giving and receiving has been around for ages, but always with one you expect the other. It is rare to find someone who is willing to give without first receiving, yet when you find one, from the cracks the others will emerge. A movement will be started, and paying it forward will become part of everyday life without you actually realizing it.
