I had never in my life heard someone say those words to me until today. Whew ... that is a tough sentence to hear from someone!
I've been preparing for the upcoming MS 150 bike ride and at work I posted some flyers about a little bake sale I'll be doing around the office every Monday in August to raise funds. I also distributed the flyer via e-mail to the people on my floor. Today, I received an e-mail from one of my co-workers thanking me for what I was doing.
I stopped by his cube and chatted with him for about 30 minutes. He was so appreciative to me for what I was doing to help out with the MS ride and there was a wonderfully genuine and deep gratitude in his eyes when he spoke to me about the ride and his struggle with MS. I was very touched by his willingness to share that with me; it was a wonderful gift.

Great work with the bake sale. It will be 2 years since I did the ride. I really miss it. The ms150 was a highlight of the season for me every year for 6 years. Have fun and raise lots of cash.
Thanks.
Feel free to contribute monetarily. It'll make you feel better. ;)
