Gifts fly back and forth across the universe, gracing first one person, then the next. It is not a competition, but those involved are giddy with the joy of it. First one then another sends something to a deserving soul and upon its receipt, it is opened and ogled, studied and perused at such great length that others might find it hilarious. And others are just so grateful. All three of my children received checks today. Large ones from someone who can afford it and wanted them to have it. Wow!
I sent a little something to someone the other day and I enjoyed the sending very much. I received a surprise from one of my favorite musicians today and was moved to tears. I had not expected to hear from him at all. He lives in France now and summers in the Canary Islands. Quite a step up from the street musician he was when I knew him.
And yet another gift flew into my hands only moments ago! What a weekend this is! Smiles as sweet as winter snowdrops on faces filled with life, but it is the shadow that intrigues me. The shadow of the hand that sent the gift was included and is as much a gift as the smile.
So much light behind these gifts.
