Heartfelt gift

A colleague of mine, who I admire and think very highly off, has been in NYC the last week. We work very close and besides discussing work and current projects and we also talk about books, travels, food, wine and all other things we enjoy in life. He’s overall a great person and colleague. Someone to hold on tight to when things get rocky, which they have tendency be at our company quite often.

Today when we met he gave me a present from NYC. A risotto cookbook he had found at Barnes & Nobel and immediately thought of me. For a brief moment I did actually not know what to say. It was just such a heartfelt gift and made me very happy. You fix things, was his only comment.

I’m still very happy and feel blessed to have a colleague like him.
