Two words saved my life, two modest but mighty words: Thank you! What began as a means to save ourselves from our own worst fears, Mom and I found our way into the hearts and hands of our front-line heroes. Our purpose was handed to us in the shape of an envelope, a simple paper container with a sealable flap that holds hope for our everyday heroes. As it turned out, a life of stationery was my destiny, not a stationary life. And it all began on the heels of a broken heart.
