You can never do a kindness too soon,for you never know how soon it will be toolate.How many times have we said, "Oh I'll do that tomorrow."Sometimes tomorrow never comesand we find ourselves saying, "Boy, I wish I hadn't put that off."Our family has been friends with Betty formany years.Over the yearswe shared phone callsand birthday cards.Betty sent our youngest son Brandon abirthday cardwith $5.00 in ituntil he graduated.This past NovemberI called Betty to see how she wasand what she had done on her birthday.I was quite surprised when Betty didn'tanswer the phone;instead her daughter Carol did.Carol told methat her mom had gone downhill fastand she was now in Hospice care.Carol handed the phone to Betty.I talked briefly to herand let her know we loved her.As soon as I got off the phoneI sent a text to Brandonto let him knowBetty wasn't doing well.Little did I knowthat Brandon stopped what he was doingand immediately sent flowers to Betty.You can imaginehow proud I was of Brandonwhen Carol called the next dayletting me knowhow much Betty loved the flowersBrandon had sent.A few days laterBetty died.You can never do a kindness too soon,for you never know how soon it will be toolate.
