God's Little Blessings

I dread December 6th. Usually I make special plans for the day. Last year I practically went on retreat, avoiding all friends (except for those in the lay community I was staying with) This year though time flew by, I planned nothing, and I was a mess.
Yesterday was an extremely hard day. It didn't snow. It has snowed every year for the past nine years on December 6th. When I saw flurries last night, I thought, okay, that is enough. A few minutes later my phone rings. A friend (who by the way has no idea that this date is hard for me) called. She told me she had been meaning to return my call but couldn't find the number. Today she stumbled across it, almost a month later. These little blessings from God are my favorite things.

Pax Christi!
