Besides communicating with parents and students regarding educational matters, sending cards, organizing meal sign-ups, and collecting gift cards are some ways I witness fellow teaching colleagues share kindness with others in times of need. Now, I am on the other side as I receive various types of communication regarding my mother’s health.
I have reread the cards to my mother who, surprisingly, remembers those who communicated. “She is from church” or ” They are from Royal Park” are some of her answers as her eyes remain closed.
The communication varies from texts and posts to cards and calls, but it reminds of the importance of always reaching out to those who face a life-changing situation. It helps knowing how others have also faced this journey. God is good all the time. All the time, God is good.
A Journey Worth Remembering
