Okay, we don't really have a stranger in the house, because she quickly became a friend! A friend and neighbor asked if their niece could stay with us for her spring break job shadowing trip. We were delighted to accommodate this young woman we'd never met because she was part of a friend's family. Of course if this same individual had approached us on her own, without the connection, we would have declined. She's a delightful young woman and we're pleased that she's become a new friend.
I love this beautiful illustration of asking for what you want and need from those with whom you have a great relationship. When we're open to possibilities, strangers become friends and relationships are strengthened by shared experiences.
