TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!

It's so easy for us to get wrapped into our day to day, that we don't "see the forest for the tress"  In this moment when so many of us are struggling with our own mental/physical/financial HELL, it's easy to forget those important to us.  This morning I WOULD LIKE TO TESTIFY!!  ;  )
I received a phone call this morning, no let me rewind.  You guys know I have to give you the details, lol. Well, its not that I like to ramble, but when i finally share my thought, I want you to feel the emotion.  To understand why to me this was so important to say.
So!  I see a friend online and send her a message.  You ever have a friend that you may not speak to everyday, someone that may even live in the same neighborhood, but because you guys are so wrapped up in your day to day, you almost never get a chance to speak let alone sit for tea (or Vodka,lol).  But a freind that you know that you can count on in a minute for anything.  Well this is she, my Mags (my nickname for her).  A friend in the truest sense of the word.  It's rare that I feel someone REALLY gets me, and after living in Haiti for all these years, theses are even fewer and further.     I send Mags the message and she immediately calls me. We both talk about how we haven't seen each other and how close we live together, we play a little catch up, and laugh some.  We tell each other we love the other. And before we get off the line, I take the opportunity to tell Mags what she means to me, and how a simple sentence she told me awhile back has really helped me get passed a very difficult moment.  Mags had no idea how much her love though not in the physical sense, but in the emotional sense, had always touched and replenished my soul.  We got off the phone, again promising to do better in keeping in touch.  I will at least do my best, for tomorrow is not promised.  Again she replenished me, and I got off the phone feeling blessed to have her in my life.  

We never know how much time we have with a person.  Today, give someone a call and tell them how special they are too you.  Call and old friend that you havent spoken to in awhile. Check in on them, you never know, this might be just what they need.  Not to be too dramatic, but you might just save a soul.   





Mags I love you so much, lets do tea-ka  very soon! ;  ) 

God thank you also for Michel, who also called me this morning.  Thank you for Chantal, Sharon, Kurt, Jenise, Victor, Irene, Alice, Fridjo, Polo, Lori, Johanne, Carmel and of course my cousin Michelange and all my family and "family".  


Too blessed too be stressed! Amen
