Dear Stephanie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You are an angel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I walked into your store not knowing that my soul was drained and empty. I knew my heart was heavy, but my soul? It was so battered I didn\u2019t even recognize it anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You probably walked into work today as though it was any other day. Not realizing that you might change a life, reinvigorate a soul. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But that\u2019s exactly what you did. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You saw me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You walked with me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You said words that matter to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your soul recognized<\/em> my soul. <\/p>\n\n\n\n There’s strength in recognition and you today embodied that strength. I am forever grateful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You listened to the divine. You were quiet and still and listened to me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite the restrictions of a mask, you were able to see through my eyes into my soul and the strength within you recognized the strength within me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You embodied this concept of namaste: the Divinity in me recognizes the Divinity in you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You did that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Our shared divinity – our shared strength – brought us together today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In a few moments you quickly became one of the most influential people I have ever met. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Because you were unafraid of your power – your strength – in recognizing the divinity within me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dear Stephanie.
