Few words about grace

A couple of months back I went to my cousin's wedding. I'm terrible at getting gifts for strangers, so I piggy-backed with my brother and bought the frame for a nice little piece of art his wife had made. This is very obviously a not-good gift.

In the thank you note I received today, my cousin unflinchingly acknowledged my not-goodness without betraying the grateful tone of a thank you note. The grace of such an accomplishment brought me surprising joy.

oh my oh my is grace wonderful.
