Do we all know special people?

Do you ever think about all the people that you know? A friend of mine asked me a few weeks ago if I ever wondered if all people have contact with so many special people or if we were especially lucky.

We know a cancer survivor who is so dynamic you would never even know that she had battled that demon, an administrator that treated employees as family (like no one I've ever known), and we were blessed by the presence of a woman that always found the silver lining in bad situations. I try to think of her whenever someone aggravates me. The list of people goes on and on. My friend has a hypothesis that many of these people gravitate to the world of agriculture that we work in. I don't know why I have been blessed with so many special people in my life, but I'm quite thankful that I have.

I honestly have to say that I had not thought about that. I have had many people walk in and out of my life but I never pondered the many unique and truly wonderful people that I have come to know as acquaintances, friends, and soul mates.

I deeply hope that other people know many special people as well, but I still consider myself quite lucky for knowing every person I do and looking forward to meeting many more.

  • I like your article. Too many people don't take time to appreciate others. It happens all the time (the boss who doesn't know the cleaning lady's name...etc.). Good for you for being bold and caring about the people in your life! Glad you have so many great people in your life, toO!
