Power of love
The wind in my sails
“I was struggling after my sister, Melissa, moved to Dallas for a job opportunity. I was proud of her and cheered her on, but only seeing her on FaceTime and reading texts now was depressing, especially when it came to our daily exercise routine. Every day, we’d power walk along the lake. I hated it and she’d always say, ‘Just do it!’ and take off. What I wouldn’t give for those three words as I started strolling by the water.
“I dragged along, not really wanting to exert myself, and missing my walking buddy with all of my heart. ‘I guess I can skip today,’ I uttered. Just then, I caught sight of a sailboat out in the distance with big black script letters on the billowing sail that said, Just do it!
“I blinked with shock, then burst into laughter. ‘Okay, Sis, I’m going,’ I said, as I took off, grateful she was still there with me.”
—Nina Lombardi, 56, Cambridge, MA
