Lenten Challenge #27: Worth the wait

Today’s challenge in generosity is to be especially considerate and grateful to the many people who serve you in a day. The people behind the counter in stores and businesses, the wait staff in a restaurant, the crew of the aircraft — every day we are served by others. Acknowledge them with genuine attention. 

I was blessed this morning when Kristie, the woman who cleans at Trina’s house once a week, greeted me with a hug. I’d never actually met her before though I’d seen  her on a video chat. And I’m not a very ‘huggy’ person (like my beloved sister, Cheryl) but it felt good to be greeted so warmly this morning. I want to pass that on.
   And on an entirely different note, it is raining here again today.  The forecast is for the weather to clear up on Tuesday – the day I leave at 5:00am!  Oh, well, I just keep reminding myself how much California needs the water.
