These are wonderful instances of how we have touched another, indeed, @hayden.

@raclut, I know so well the special attachment you have spoken of with your neighbor and her family. My children have also been deeply impacted by a young couple and their small children, so much so that one of the young children played a central part in my daughter’s college essay.

I know your former neighbor, the mom, will think of you often, and maybe even share stories of you, her friend and neighbor, with all the new friends she makes.

I like to think that what is most true when we have deeply given, or shared, or touched and been touched, are the sentiments expressed in this line from the film version of Indian in the Cupboard: “When I leave you, I take you.”
