People Who Need People

As a massage therapist, I awakened a desire to bring comfort to hospice patients at the end of their lives. What I get in return is so much more rewarding. 

Violet was a devout, God-fearing woman who was loved by all and inspired me. Bella was alone, harboring resentments, empty in her faith. 

What separated them was a hallway in their facility. What they shared were my visits. 

Each time I saw them brought more of the same until I noticed the staff was more attentive to Violet’s needs. 

Bella needed Violet. 

My mission that day was to introduce them.
