Someone Thought of Me Today

Someone Thought of Me Today

This week, my phone buzzed with a text from someone I hadn’t heard from in quite a while.

It was a simple message, and before I even finished reading it, I caught myself smiling.

There was something comforting about knowing that, somewhere in the middle of an ordinary day, I had crossed someone else’s mind.

It’s easy to assume everyone is busy living their own lives. We lose touch, schedules change, and weeks turn into months. Then a message arrives out of the blue, reminding us that meaningful connections don’t disappear simply because time has passed.

It made me wonder how often we think of someone and never tell them.

Life gets busy, days slip by, and we assume there will always be another opportunity to reach out. Meanwhile, a simple text can remind someone they haven’t been forgotten.

This week, if someone’s name comes to mind, shoot them a quick text to remind them how special they are. It might be exactly the encouragement they needed.

Connection begins with one small act of letting someone know they were on your heart.

This Weeks Reflection

I hope this week brings you a few unexpected reminders that you’re thought of, appreciated, and connected in ways you may never fully see.

Until next time,

Nicole Z.

Remember That Dream You Planted? I write my newsletters in real time and chose Wednesday intentionally. With that said, it's been a busy week on many levels. Maybe at some point, I'll lean more towards automated delivery. I've been planting seeds lately. I've planted many throughout my life and have been blessed to see them come to fruition. The harvest depends as much on the seed as it does on the faith required to believe in the fullness of it. This is my third newsletter in a row on faith....

Concerts In The Car Quick update: I'm still not on the beach, in the Caribbean. "No Woman, No Cry" did get blasted in my car a time or two, and I may or may not have been singing along at the top of my lungs, with other drivers looking over at me having my own concert session. Last week I shared my personal frustrations, which allowed me to take a step back and reflect. Walking into this week, I would remind that version of me that through all of my adversities, God has never failed me yet....

Are You There, God? Last week I touched on joy. This week, well, quite frankly, I'm finding myself feeling frustrated. I've reached my creative plateau. I'm throwing in the towel. Saying farewell. Okay, not really, but that's how I feel. I've put in some time being absorbed, and now I have these completely absurd thoughts creeping in. Is that you, God, or am I crazy? Either could be true at this point. Ever been called to something you don't feel qualified for? Let's rephrase. Ever thought,...
