One day in 1983 in a flower shop off Broadway in the east village of NYC, I was having fun picking out flowers like I do every week. Someone next to me in the store was also enjoying the beauty of the moment and we started talking. She was an elegant woman named Francesca and I noticed a twinkle in her eye. As our conversation continued I could sense that Francesca was a spiritual person and a lot of fun. I shared some information about a transformational seminar I was very excited about and invited her to join me next week at the event.
The seminar, “The Power of Acknowledgement,” was developed and taught by a wonderful and enlightening man named Michael Wyman. Sure enough, Francesca showed up and we had a great time. We became good friends and worked closely with Michael for many years expanding our consciousness and helping others. We made a difference. We remain dear friends even since I moved out to California in 1995.
Francesca, or “Fabulous Francesca” as I call her, is one of my inspirations and teachers. We met over thirty years ago in a flower shop and life presented us with the gift of friendship that lasts forever. What a blessing!
Over the years, Fran has truly been fabulous to me and for me. I am a better person and being because of our friendship and I continue to learn from her example. It turned out that Francesca was very interested in metaphysics, spirituality and natural medicine and she opened up a world of new information to me along with Michael back in the early 1980′s. Fran is still one of my closest advisors and mentors. It was a very special time and I was a sponge soaking up all of the good energy and information.
There are people in your life that deserve to be acknowledged, recognized and appreciated for who they are and their contribution to you and others. Share the gift of friendship and flowers to those you care about and to yourself.
Do you take time to “smell the flowers” and do things in nature and in life that fulfill your soul? You never know when the universe will send blessings and abundance or how it will show up. In this case, the universe sent me one of the most wonderful angels named Fabulous Francesca and I am so thankful!
