I meet strangers all the time, but they do not often stay
strangers. Frequently they become friends. Even those people that I meet only once
have an effect on my life. Sometimes I am fortunate to have two visits with
particularly special people and in those brief moments I learn some of the
greatest of my personal life lessons.
I know that as I touch them, they also touch me. I hope that
my impact in their lives is wholly positive, but I am not naive enough to think
that I only leave the memory of perfume and roses in my wake. However, I will
continue to pray that my contribution to the lives of those I am in contact
with will be primarily beneficial.
Years may pass before we realise the impact a particular
person or event has had in our lives, or it can be instantaneous. Each life is
important, each person we meet is as important as we are. We are constantly
teachers – to ourselves and others, and students.
We have daily personal life lessons to learn and live.
“Every life is a contribution. We may not see how ...
Everyone comes into our lives for a reason, and it is our responsibility to
learn what they have to teach us.”
