cookie drop
It's been a very busy month, filled with lots of fun and some sorrow. I've been to the Hamptons, Chicago, Seattle, Chicago again, and Stamford, CT in a month. What was the common factor to these trips? To spend time with good friends that I consider family and the actual biological kind.
The second trip we took to Chicago, was for a very painful reason: Mr. Mari's uncle, David, passed away. One of the magical traits David had, was the ability to make you feel like the center of the universe, no one and nothing else was as important as you at that very moment. My good friend, Pam, tweeted an article about highly charismatic people. It was as if written about Mr. Mari's uncle and aunt, names omitted.
The funeral got me thinking about time: Time living and doing, time spent with friends and family and how often I tell those close to me how much I value and adore them. Like how my mom's care package made me feel, I decided to start a cookie/goodie drop. Just a token of my time sent via USPS to let the recipient know that I'm thinking of them, that I look forward to seeing them (soon), and that I love them.
