A Gift on My Desk Just When I Needed It


--by Aurelia, posted Jul 3, 2008

When I got to work today there was a gift on my desk. Inside was a book called Hugs for Friends along with a music CD with songs of friendship including wind beneath my wings, etc.

I was shocked to find out that it was from my girlfriend who seems to always be there for me -- on her card she said that 'I' was always there for HER!!!!

You know I've been feeling the loss of my mom more than ever lately and this was just what I needed.  I listened to the CD all day at work and intend to share some of the messages from the book with everyone on this site. 

Here's one: Friends are angels who life our feel when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly. 

Friends...where would we be without them?

I am so happy for you that you were blessed with a surprise from your friend today. (And I'm sure that your mom will continue to shower your life with blessings from her Spirit)
I'm praying for you and hoping that you are hanging in there.
Lots of love and hugs to you.
