I was held in the arms of many friends this past week. More friends than I’ve seen in quite some time. It was overwhelming as much as it was welcome.
Whenever I am in the presence of the great women in my life, and there are many, I am reminded of Our Lady and grateful that every time I see her around her palms are equally as open and heaven-turned as my friends hands are for me.
A reminder that receiving goodness needs no more than an open hand, an open heart, and a willingness to look up no matter what.
