When I was quite young, I discovered that somewhere inside the telephone lived an amazing

person - "Information Please" and there was nothing she did not know.　

One day while my mother was out, I hit my finger with a hammer. The pain was terrible, but

there was no one home to give me any sympathy. I walked around the house, finally arriving at the telephone! Quickly, I called “Information Please" and told her what happened.　She told me to open the icebox and hold a little piece of ice to my finger.

After that, I called "Information Please" for everything. When my pet bird died, I told

"Information Please" the sad story. She tried to comfort me, she said quietly, "Paul, always remember that there are other worlds to sing in." Somehow I felt better.　Another day I was on the telephone, “How do you spell ‘grateful’? ". All this took place in a small town in the Pacific Northwest. When I was 9, we moved to Boston.

A few years later, on my way to college, my plane put down in Seattle. I had about half an

hour or so between planes. Without thinking, I dialed my hometown operator and said, "Information, please."　　　

Surprisingly, I heard the small, clear voice I knew so well, "Information." I hadn't planned on

this but I heard myself saying, "Could you please tell me how to spell ‘grateful’?"　

There was a long pause. Then came the soft-spoken answer, "I guess your finger must have

healed by now."　　I laughed. "So it's really still you," I said, "I wonder if you have any idea how much you meant to me during that time."　I told her how often I had thought of her over the years and asked if I could call her again. "Please do," she said, "Just ask for Sally."　

Three months later I was back in Seattle. A different voice answered me. I was told that Sally

passed away five weeks before.　　　

Before I could hang up she told me that Sally left a message for me-“Tell him I still say

there are other worlds to sing in. He'll know what I mean.”　I thanked her and hung up. I knew what Sally meant.

Never underestimate the impression you may make on others. Whose life have you touched

today?
