Traveling

Pat Abbott, one of my housemates from Uganda, recently flew through Philadelphia over her birthday weekend. It was a gift to see her and be reminded of her creative and compassionate care for those around her. She continues to winsomely model the power of investing deeply in relationships. I’m thankful for even a few short hours with her spent wandering around Fairmount, enjoying coffee and conversation, and eating a celebratory Brazilian feast with the Learys and Catharine. Her presence brought a little sunshine to Philadelphia, which may have been a part of keeping the rain at bay for most of my Broad Street Run the day after I saw her.
