This patterned blouse took me a good month to get the nerve to wear after I purchased it... and I was so terrified to wear it.

The day after I wore it, I got an email from Brian that said he had been really busy the day before, but he really wanted to make sure I knew that the blouse was flattering and complemented my skin tone, and how nice it looked. He wasn't being a pervert about it, he was being very sincere.

I was so happy about that email, I printed it and brought it home to show my hubby! He thought it was funny b/c he wanted me to wear the blouse for weeks.

That one little random act of kindness really boosted my morale so much. I actually have several blouses with patterns now, and every time I wear any of them, I think of Brian.

Thanks for always letting me ramble and talk things through. I love PT.
What a lovely memory to have from your co-worker who so suddenly passed away!

My deepest sympathy to you and all who care deeply about him. God bless.
