I gift myself Christmas presents from John every year. I know he didn't buy them, of course. But I like to think he would have if he were here. But even though I tell myself that, it's still not the same thing as getting something really from him.
But this year was different.
I met a dear friend for lunch a couple of days ago. And we exchanged Christmas presents. Hers to me touched my heart.
It was a Willow Tree figurine. I love them and have many. But I didn't have this one.
It's called Messenger and the note from the company says "Bringing comfort and love from afar". My friend said she felt especially inspired to buy this for me. I KNOW that was John. He sent me a real present from him this year.
Thank you. Thank you for my dear dear friend. Thank you for John's love.
Namaste.
