Footprints in the Heart

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

People enter into our lives, as they say, for a reason, a season or a lifetime. They touch our hearts and souls in profound ways; often leaving lasting imprints.

Our only response to this encounter need be to accept the gift of their presence in our lives, for the moment, without wanting to cling or hold tight our grasp. Instead, we allow the experience to flow freely through our fingers -- in sweet release -- knowing we have touched the beauty and essence of their souls.
