Friday reflection

“You need any help?”

Today is moving day for my family — we’re finally realizing a long-held dream of moving out of the city and into New York’s Hudson Valley.

I was standing on the sidewalk this morning when a neighbor passed by — someone I’d never met before — and, surveying the scene (boxes etc), he asked, “Hey, you need any help?”

“Oh, no, we have movers,” I said, “but thank you SO much.”

“It’s what we do,” he said, smiling, and then: “Many blessings on your moving day.”

How it lifted my heart. And how I hope it’s lifting yours.

You are a mighty force -
