One day in 1983 in a flower shop off Broadway in the east village of NYC, I was having fun picking out flowers.  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.  I could sense 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 to this day.

Francesca, or “Fabulous Francesca” as we 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 a unique friendship that lasts forever.  What a blessing!

Over the years, Fran has truly been fabulous to me in many ways.  I am a better person and being because of our friendship and I continue to learn from her example and wisdom.  Francesca was very interested in metaphysics, spirituality and natural medicine.  She opened up a new world to me along with Michael back in the early 1980′s.  Fran is still one of my closest advisers and mentors.  Those early days were a very special time and I was a sponge soaking up all of the good energy and information.

There are people in our lives who deserve to be acknowledged, recognized and appreciated for who they are and their contribution.  Share the gift of friendship and flowers to those you care about and to yourself.  Share the gift of your acknowledgment and heart and watch the world transform.

Do you take time to “smell the flowers” and do things in nature to fulfill your soul?  In this case, along with beautiful flowers, the universe sent me a wonderful angel named Fabulous Francesca and I am so thankful!

What are you thankful for?
