When we give of ourselves – whether it be through love, encouragement or understanding – it costs us nothing.
Yet, as with a candle that lights another, the light is multiplied with each new candle lit.
Now that’s a great return on investment.

Life as a sandwich generation x’er, stacked with irony. As a ‘normal’ person peering out from the boundaries of suburbia, as a transplant from another state, maybe another planet. As a mother of teenage boys and freelance working writer balancing parenting with helping to care for my mother. And now as an only child of a mother with Alzheimer’s (which sucks).
