My wonderful daughter is in Ireland with her mom, stepdad and sister. Every year her school has a select group of kids get in front of the whole school and give a memorized speech.
She happen to lose the copy of her speech while she was there. Virtually without thinking I told her I'd get it and instinctively I got in the car to go get it after hanging up.
It felt great to do it for her. Granted our relationship is unique in my life as Zoe is my only child. However, I learned that I have the capacity to give without thinking twice.
Given that, it seems to me that I can make that happen in the rest of my life. I know I can do it, now I just have to. There''s no good reason not to.
