Milk of Human Kindness

We spent the last few days helping an older neighbor of ours move. She had no help and I had been plannning on helping her anyway but it really made it worth it to see some of the worry fade from her face. I can't imagine being all alone and in a position like that with no one to help. Besides which, she is a really nice lady and it fills a space in me to hear her stories and wisdom. It takes the place of grandpa and grandma. She's so sweet and generous it hardly seems like work at all. It's just something that needs to be done.
