Today is my precious friend Dory's birthday.
She's truly a treasure.

God gave a gift to the world when you were born—
a person who loves,
who cares, who sees a person’s need and fills it,
who encourages and lifts people up,
who spends energy on others rather than herself,
someone who touches each life she enters,
and makes a difference in the world,
because ripples of kindness flow outward
as each person you have touched, touches others.
Your birthday deserves to be a national holiday,
because you are a special treasure for all that you’ve done.
May the love you have shown to others return to you, multiplied.
I wish you the happiest of birthdays, and many, many more,
so that others have time to appreciate and love you
as much as I do.
Happy Birthday Sweet Friend!
I love you and hope you have a wonderful day!
