A few times a year, when I'll be gone, I phone it in and do a re-post. Allow me some time to recuperate and I'll be back with new material! xoxo, RoF
Surely in the last 4 yrs (update: 5 yrs now) of Running on Fumes I have mentioned my sweet great aunt, my daughter's namesake, the woman who taught me that life is for giving. But, if you're new here, allow me to introduce her once again.
circa 2022
It's very difficult for her to hear on the phone so occasionally I break out the pen and paper and send her a love note. At 96, her ears may not be what they once were but her sight is adequate. She is love epitomized into one small woman with the most beautiful laugh and a smile that lights up the entire world.
Love letters
She's a God-fearing woman with a heart of genuine gold. I try to be a woman she is proud of, an incredible mom like she filled that role for me, and an overall good person. And her deep baritone singing voice? Well, nothing I do could ever come close.
Sure, this post is short today but there's so much meaning behind it. Call the person, send them a love note, tell them how much they are missed. It's not for you. It's for them.
________________
I ask you -
Do you have a special person in your life?
How is your singing voice?
Tell me the last time you sent someone a personal letter or note!
