Gratitude
If you’ve been following
this blogspot, you’ve read about our Sr. Priscilla’s profession of final
vows. What a gift to have been there to
celebrate the event with Priscilla and many of our sisters! In the midst of a very busy week, I managed
to contract an eye infection. I am so
grateful for a caring doctor who diagnosed the problem, prescribed treatment
for it, and even gave me a follow up call today to ask about my well-being. I am also thankful for the increased energy I
am experiencing today after healing has begun.
I am grateful to be in the midst of my Dominican sisters who have
supported me even when I wasn’t feeling well.
Another surprise event
occurred a couple of days ago as I was sitting in the doctor’s office. One of my biological sisters called to ask
something of me. I was most honored with
her request, and I am ever grateful for the relationship we have formed as
adults. We have learned to honor and
respect each other’s choices and unique faith journeys. The sibling rivalry of
childhood is a thing of the past.
Another gift!
For what are
you grateful?
Are you
called to experience a relationship with many sisters?
