Wright Thurston = Hope and Encouragement

I don't know about you, but there have been, are, and will be times in my life when the Voice of someone I haven't even met brings to me the very words I have need of at the exact right moment.

Often these come from the internet via Facebook or Twitter and the realization hits me that there are many many people out there who have taken the time and made the effort to be kind to those, like me, whom they will probably never lay eyes on but are in need of one kind or another.

Wright Thurston is one of those people.

Just recently I have been in a bit of a funk. This Long Dark Dakota winter seemed to drag on forever; I was feeling cold inside and out, the greening time impossible for me envision, and my enthusiasm for everything at a low ebb.

Today I found in my inbox something that both made me smile and renewed my hope and determination.

It was a link to Wright Thurston's Tweets.

Here's the one that, on this day, went straight to my Soul:

And so, on this day, I say to Wright Thurston:  Thank you so very much for being as you are and for doing what you do. You no doubt hear often that you have made a difference. I affirm that. Today you have given me a gift and I do believe that such things don't just happen by accident.
