Sunday night, I visited my junior high science teacher with several of her former students. We gave her a book that contained thank-you notes and letters from her past students. Her joy and gratitude were inspiring and uplifting. I am grateful I finally thanked one of the most influential, life-changing ladies in my life.
On Monday, I arrived home from school and found a little package on my doorstop. It contained a precious wooden box with brass finishings--from Subhash in India!!! I was blown away. Even more dear to me is the little note he put in it, thanking me for the work I did and wishing me well.
Looking back at the these experiences, it is incredible that the people who taught me more than I could dream of giving to them, are actually thanking me. I am grateful.
This week: What gifts of gratitude have touched your life, either through being the giver or the receiver?
