It just so happens that one of Buddha's best friends did a brave and caring act for him, one that broke my heart in its kindness and selflessness, and one that showed the character of the parents that are instilling these values in her.
Is it a coincidence that she did this act of pure kindness the week that I'm shopping for her birthday present? I'm literally having to make myself stop from buying her everything Cinderella that I see.
Gratitude
Day 4: My Parent-Friends
How do you thank the people who are raising their children to be compassionate and thoughtful? I am overwhelmed by the goodness I've surrounded myself and my family with. I've seen Buddha's girlfriends do so many kind acts around him, acts that reflect their nature and upbringing and their parents' commitment to them. Some are small and some are big in nature, but they are all THEIR nature and for that I'm grateful.
