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 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 its 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. Hell 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?
