So many times, I look back, and realize, wow, that was a gift I gave! Just a part of a day, but when you look, we all give little gifts, time, words, smiles, that extra piece of candy, the last biscuit, but of all, I think encouragement is golden. I've given in places that are so hard for me right now due to current financial reasons. Cash. Whew...it's hard to let that go sometimes. I'm embarrassed to admit that.
