The Education of Mary Jane

I am continually surprised by how PERFECT God's timing can be.... Case in point; I find myself feeling much sadder than I anticipated, at 6 a.m. this morning! And just when I was about to start feeling sorry for myself (out of character for me - truly), I call my Mom (Ma, Mamma, Mother)... I need to let her know I haven't forgotten about calling her, just haven't been able to focus on any one thing all day. Of course, she tells me "it's okay" (as only a Mom would do) and as we say goodbye, she slips in "If you need to talk, call me back!" And eight little words puts a smile on my face.... reminding me that in the moments when I'm feeling my lowest... my 1st BEST FRIEND is only a phone call or car ride away... how lucky am I? If I have learned anything... it's TREASURE the moments you have with the people you LOVE.. !
