Reshared this moving piece and also wanted to add this serendipitous point. I read this after a one hour birthday call with a friend. In these calls, I ask for a pearl of wisdom or insight that can guide me in this next chapter. Hers was this “There is a place for everyone.” Then your words echoed the same in Hattie May’s story. Divine guidance indeed. 🙏
