He Is a Kind Soul - Winner of Lovey Dovey Contest


I met my husband when I began working at a car dealership where he was the service manager. We hadn't even started dating yet - that was a year away - but I noticed something he did that I had never seen before in this environment. When he would go over to a client who was seated to discuss the work being done, he would not speak down to them while standing; he would kneel next to them so they wouldn't have to get up. I'm not sure too many people really noticed it, but it struck me, from the first day I started working there, that he was a kind soul. It didn't take long after we were dating to know that his kindness carried through to all parts of his life. 

Twenty-one years later, he is still always kind to my parents who are sometimes extremely hard to be kind to, he is a strong male role model to our 15-year-old son and his kindness has taught our son to respect those around him. My husband went to law school after we were married. He was 39 at the time. Today he is a respected elder law attorney who treats his elderly clients with such dignity and grace. They adore him, as do I. 

I have been fortunate enough to be the primary recipient of his kindness for the last two decades! It doesn't even matter to me if I win prizes for these words. I already have my prize and am happy that I can share these thoughts with at least one reader. 

Thank you for asking and letting us share. Be well, 

Olga

My husband's girlfriend since 1994
