Last night I went home to visit my dad who'd just returned from a long trip. I hadn't seen him for 6 weeks and could tell he was happy to see me.
As we get older our lives get busier, our priorities change, and sometimes important relationships get overlooked. It is for precisely these reasons why making a little extra effort can have such a profound influence.
It may be handwriting a letter instead of sending an email. Calling to check on someone instead of texting. Putting in another hour of rehearsal, or driving a few miles out of your way to check on a loved one.
You may not realize it, but the quality of your attention can have enormous value.
