Chirpings from a Strathalan Sparrow

The other day, we received a letter but the sender had accidentally forgotten to put a stamp on it! The address on the front and their own written address on the back were very clearly written…all that was missing was the stamp! The funny thing was that it was postmarked just the day before, so it had only taken the single day to reach us, and yet at other times letters can go missing for days and days even though they are correctly and clearly addressed and stamped! Names are very precious things. When we think of a person's name, it can bring so many lovely thoughts and memories and shared time remembrances into our minds. Thinking of the name of a loved is a treasured thought! And every person who we meet in our lives does leave a "stamp" on our life. Sometimes the "stamp"may be the footstep of a tiny ant, but it still is someone that we may remember years and years later. I am thankful for people who leave ant footprints, elephant footprints, teddy bear pawprints, and all other sized footprints in my life, for each print is a beautiful expression of love, joy and preciousness. Thankyou for the special stamps you make on each other's lives and hearts! ❤️
