Belated…

I don’t even have a clue how the day flew so fast. I had made a mental note to call Helen, my Wonder woman. Next thing I know, I arrive home late, I’m struggling to get things done and I still hadn’t called her.

Then I remembered something like this had happened with Orako Zoe and I ended up not calling her at all and she thought I had forgotten her birthday… She called me out immediately I wrote I think of you (Part 2)… I didn’t want that to happen again.

So I stopped everything I was doing and I called Helen. Belated but still in time. It was her birthday. Ordinarily, we would have made plans and we could have spent some part of the day together, being silly… but she up and left our town… I’m still trying to deal with that.

The highlight of it all is this; at the end of our call, she told me my call and the conversation we had just made her entire day…

I was glad I stopped everything to call her.

I’m going to be stopping everything for loved ones when I need to.

I may just be making their day with the stop… Heck, I may be making my own day as well.
