I thank the person and am grateful but, when you have been independent for so long, receiving takes time to accept. I'm so glad you were able to help with your lotion! Such a miracle.

And I love your "lesson". The $10 was especially poignant for me. When I was a young wife with a toddler and a 6 month old, my hubby lost his job. We were cutting wood for folks, just to have diaper money. My dear grandmother, who has been on a farm laborer wages her whole life, gave me a small dish of hers that I had always loved. Inside was a $10 bill. It was a huge amount for her to give, and for me to receive. She told me she knew how it felt to be so low, and not to spend a dime of it on "necessities". It's been 23 years and that little dish sits by my sink to remind me how the smallest gift can carry immense love. I know that the people you have touched will carry the memory in their hearts forever.MsSamWearsDresseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15448648824327889325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5885548773613247997.post-81557010643089815002020-03-08T18:36:42.317-07:002020-03-08T18:36:42.317-07:00I love this story because I think we'll be oka...I love this story because I think we'll be okay as long as there are people willing to selflessly help others when there's a need. I'm so glad you were able to help the man get some relief. <br />Have a great week! <br />magnoliasnteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08517995125207145961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5885548773613247997.post-61135918557857629472020-03-07T14:17:47.713-08:002020-03-07T14:17:47.713-08:00How wonderful that you were able to help him.
