Here’s a story I came across online, one that’s been circulating for a few years now. Every time I read it, it brings me a sense of warmth and reminds me of the simple, yet profound moments we can easily overlook.
So, I wanted to share it again, especially for those who might not have seen it before. It’s a story about family, love, and the importance of making time for those who matter most. The author is unknown, but its message is timeless. Take a moment to read it, and let it touch your heart like it did mine.
“After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie. She said, ‘I love you, but I know this other woman loves you and would love to spend some time with you.’
The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit was my mother, who had been a widow for 19 years, but the demands of my work and my 3 children had made it possible to visit her only occasionally.
That night I called to invite her to go out for dinner and a movie.
