These little gestures are those we learn at home, in the family; they get lost amid all the other things we do, yet they do make each day different.
They are the quiet things done by mothers and grandmothers, by fathers and grandfathers, by children, by siblings.
They are little signs of tenderness, affection and compassion.
Like the warm supper we look forward to at night, the early lunch awaiting someone who gets up early to go to work.
Homely gestures.
Like a blessing before we go to bed, or a hug after we return from a hard day’s work. "
-Pope Francis-
