We all have a responsibility to society be it taking a dinner over to a friend in need, or an ear to listen to. Our Veterans fight for out freedom, yet we find they cannot find a job. Life is about giving and sharing, not be self absorbing all that it offers. I get at least 10 calendars a year from non-profit organizations...why, because we donate we tithe 10% of our earnings to the causes we are adament about. Hey it is like a cup of coffee a day...anyone can do it. I am very sick with a dibilitating back right now but I figure there a lot more people in pain than I am. Animals are beaten every day, people are beaten every day, even children are beaten....so I cannot complain. Give what you can to those in need...the jacket, gloves, scarves. You have no idea what that means to people in need. When see someone on the street, smile...we all need to smile more. I hope to leave this earth that I was a good person...."love thy neighbor as the thyself", is what the Bible teaches us....life is too short, to be self-absorbed. If anyone is in need of the necicities (sp) of life, try praying....HE does provide...sometimes we don't understand HIS reasoning, but FAITH is mandatory! I am not a Bible Thumper...just someone who believes in that God has a plan for us...sometimes we don't understand.
I have had cancer twice in life....now I ask why Lord..........well, the why is I am strong...I know that I can overcome anything. Think about what has happened in your life to change you? I have a husband who loves me for 43 years, 3 children who I adore, 5 Grandsons who are the light my life....I really cannot ask for anything more...the Cancer is just in the background who made me what I am...the Matriach of a great family.
Thank you Lord for giving me everything in this world I need to be complete as a person!!
