Yes, today was special. I love days like this when friends come over just to visit. We both made an effort to turn up the specialness notch a little bit today. I played two songs for them on my hammer dulcimer and one of her daughters played 'Ode to Joy' on the violin. What a treat. They enjoyed chocolate fondue with fruit, thanks to my parents setting it up. We all had fun and enjoyed each others company.
It doesn't take a lot of time or money to make someone's day a little different or special. The rewarding feeling is priceless tho. The best way to bring about happiness in your own life is to bring it to someone elses first.
