No shape, form or fashion - just help when needed most

Martha came to my aid when I was tasked with leading a presentation related to "trust". There was a formal training program ("Speed of Trust") for which of course Martha was an expert and certified trainer. I find it interesting that she was certified in in something that she already knew and lived so well - long before someone wrote a book about it!
In the end, Martha came through for me. She didn't send someone else, she stepped in and graciously gave her time. She didn't do it because "the business" asked her to, she simply did it to help me. I am not anyone who could offer her a promotion, money, or even a recommendation. By all rights I should've been working for Martha. Yet she gave her time to lend her expertise just to help this sistah who needed a helping hand. It has been many years since that day she came to my aid, but I have never forgotten it. It is in the spirit of Martha White Warren that I look to pay her kindness forward. Rejoice in paradise Martha for a job well done during your earthly visit.
