meet nancy

nancy ricci made these for me.  who is nancy ricci?
she was a perfect stranger 2-weeks ago
when she spotted me on the uptown train.
first, we exchanged smiles
warmth, instant
connected-ness. 
we exchanged cards.
you see, my fav gloves--fingerless mitts
{...i wear as often as i wear my glasses}
caught her eye.
nancy passionately lusts for yarn/ she told me she knitted fingerless gloves and more.
within a few hours i got this email that she wished to send me a gift:
hand-knitted fingerless partners for me and
my smile. 
big kindness.  amazing. 
and
here they are.  she sent two pairs {and i've been wearing them every day--even during the heatwave we had last week/ because i'm so grateful, and i LOve them, and they were made and sent with LOve}
she received a gratitude gift of pebblewear jewels/ from mE.
nancy and i shared our creativity and found that we had a few other energies in common like both having lived in various cities prior to nyc and even more curiously, living in almost the exact same apartment at one time.

you know, nancy said she was gifting mE for my smiling energy during a dull ride on a nyc subway train.  i graciously shout-out my acknowledgement to this star of a woman-soulful knitter and creative be-ing who is contributing a kind-ness vibration beyond what she may realize.

How wonderful, to meet a "stranger" who is really a friend just rediscovered perhaps. Kindness vibration, yes, very much like your own. :)

There are no stangers, just friends waiting to disocver one another. Welcome the discovery at every turn.
