It’s the little things that mean the most. Since the lost of my mother I appreciate everything and especially my time. There is collateral beauty that is born from death.
The reality that time is so valuable and is a gift. Appreciate all your moments and be fully present whenever you can. Previously, I worked in the healthcare field as a Care Manager and I visited countless chronically ill clients with multiple illnesses. One client I recalled so vividly and how she made my day. She simply said I have been waiting and I’m so glad to see you. Likewise, I said the feelings are mutual. I will never forget her face because she suffered from multiple diagnoses but one specifically stood out was chronic pain. She was the sweetest person and so genuine. However, one day when I completed my home visit, her face looked like someone rubbed vaseline all over her eyelids. I never seen this before and it suddenly dawn on me, it wasn’t Vaseline but what the effect of chronic pain can do! I knew we had to find a solution.
When we started to talk, she started asking me questions about how was I and commenting on how she looked forward to our conversations and meetings. I alway aimed to listen and to treat everyone with respect and as if they were my family or friend. The smiles were priceless and confirmed that she felt heard and cared for. I was so grateful when we were able to connect her with a pain specialist that was able to address and decrease her symptoms.
It’s been an extremely challenging 10 years since losing my mom. We can never forget we are all human and there is a power simply in your presence. Be mindful and fully present wherever you go. My connections, during that season in every area helped with my resilience and strength. We never know when our time will be up so always show up with your gift of the present and a smile! You never know how much that person may need your empathy, encouragement and smile! ❤️
