    Thank you to the Woman at the Mobil Gas Station for Your Random Act of Kindness

    June 1, 2012 /

    Ever wish you could thank a stranger for her random act of kindness–for a little thing that made a big or not so big difference in your day? Well, here’s my sincere thanks to the woman who bolted across the gas station parking lot today to hold before me a package of wet wipes (opened and primed for a quick pull, too), after she obviously witnessed my preschooler yak/vomit/barf/puke/throw-up (trust me, it was all of those) a zillion times unexpectedly in the parking lot.  Judging by her quick, mom-like, superwoman reflexes, I speculate that she’s a mom herself. Though, who knows, maybe she’s just a stranger with a kind heart who…

    The God Box: An Unexpected Gift of Love and Lessons from the Heart

    April 17, 2012 /

    I was recently honored to receive an advance copy of Mary Lou Quinlan’s book, The God Box:  Sharing My Mother’s Gift of Faith, Love and Letting Go for review.  If you’re a reader of Real Simple, you may know the book I’m talking about since Quinlan wrote about it in that magazine. The God Box is a story of a daughter (Quinlan) who discovers, after the death of her mother, multiple containers of her mother’s handwritten notes stashed away in a closet.  These “God Boxes” hold hundreds of brief notes (petitions) to God written by Quinlan’s mother over the last twenty years of her life.  What is emotionally powerful about these notes is…
