However, I shoveled a few days ago, but my body firmly said, "NO MORE" so today was forced to call the Chiropractor to get my parts back where they belong. Then .....who is that big guy clearing snow off my front steps? And there on the sidewalk was his wife, and alongside her was their teenage boy, all shoveling our sidewalk AND even the front walk. They were so bundled up, I didn't recognize them. My heart was overwhelmed with their kindness. Not only did they clear the front of our home, but then they proceeded to the back yard and cleared off the deck and a pathway to the garage! All this was done with shovels and muscles. What kindness! After these dear people left, we headed to the garage for my chiropractor appt. and when we opened the garage door, were MORE amazed to find the entire back driveway also cleared off.
This is not the first time we've been the benefit of loving, caring neighbors. Our days of helping others with this snow removal job is past, and we're now the beneficiary. Sometimes kindnesses are found right in our own back yard.
Beautiful post!
ReplyDeleteFor all the deposits you yourself left in the Karma Bank, you finally get the benefit of a withdrawal!

ReplyDeleteThat is so sweet! I am glad that you have kind neighbors who are helping you.
ReplyDeleteBest post I've read all day -- here's to those special unsung heroes who help when needed.
ReplyDeleteKindness is never overrated.
ReplyDeleteWhat goes round comes round - or words to that effect. You know what I mean. Whilst you had this I melted in over 40 degrees, and what grass there was is now brown. Take care keep warm. hugs from afar
