When You Get The Perfect Gift


--by Mish, posted Oct 19, 2021
💕 “New friends may be poems but old friends are alphabets. Don't forget the alphabets because you will need them to read the poems.” ~ William Shakespeare ~

😊 I was so happy when a gift I chose for a longtime dear friend, slowly recovering from a bad leg injury caused by her recent fall, called me to share how perfect she felt my choice was. I knew how much she loved the old TV series “The Golden Girls” (reruns are still showing on TV here) & found a Golden Girls book I just knew was something that would delight her. Like me, she is a bookaholic, too. 📚📚📚

I was looking around hoping to find something just for her & thanked the universe for leading me to something seemingly meant for my dear friend. 🙏

It was so intense if you read one page you had to get your notebook out and think………by the time I reach the middle of the book many years had passed…..then I found a card from my friend saying saw this for sale in a dutch bookshop and thought you might find it of interest…….how amazing is that…….I did thank her for it eventually lol. x
