The Gift of Time

Nina and Lily had been best friends for years, but as they grew older, they found themselves busy with work, school, and other commitments. They hadn’t seen each other in months when Lily received a surprise package from Nina. Inside was a small calendar with dates highlighted for when they would spend time together, no matter how busy their schedules were. Lily was touched by the effort Nina had put into planning their future hangouts. They made the most of their time together, whether it was a coffee date or a weekend getaway. Nina’s thoughtful gift reminded them both of the importance of making time for the people who matter.
