It is absolutely true that love and warmth and caring can be all around us and life can be very fulfilling with those "pieces". A lovely reminder, thank you.
Thanks for this touching piece. When divorced after a very long marriage, I longed to find love again. I took comfort in a series of discrete caring interactions similar to yours. A friendly, amusing comment from my local convenience store clerk would make my day…
A beautiful expression of appreciation for the under-appreciated everyday kindness and congeniality we experience. Thank you! I will try to be more attentive to these uplifting moments.
Great reminder…..we just need to be present to who and what is around us…and give back…be that person who smiles, holds the door, reaches out sometimes, pats the cat or dog, gives a pleasant greeting. Thanks.
Thank you Isabella for putting into words how we can all help each other when we exchange a few words, smiles and hugs. It feels so good and can help brighten another’s day.
You got it!! It doesn’t matter to our true selves if the covering that keeps us warm is woven in one piece or a lovingly put together scrappy quilt. Both warms us.
I loved this. Thank you, Isabella
beautiful story and so true…..love comes mostly in little pieces
The more I let other people know how much they mean to me, the more love I feel.
Thank you for sharing these thoughts and feelings. I so identify!
Thank you, Liliane. :)
A delightful and uplifting reflection!
Thank you, Adair. :)

Thank you, Lin. :)
I’m so lucky because apparently I’m living in a sitcom where friends do show up (with wine, not martinis 🍸) and we shoot the breeze.
You ARE lucky, Mao. :) Thank you for your feedback.
Yes!
Thank you, Andrea. :)

Thanks for this well written reminder that love, in different forms, is all around us. Wearing a smile instead of a frown helps too, I think.
So true. Thank you, Jeannine. :)

Sounds like you’ve created a whole lot of love, Isabella. And that you know, laughter makes life better. Such wisdom.
Thank you, Kristin. :)
