And yes, it's so sad to see so many suffer truly terrible circumstances be they health or the results of this devastating storm. I'm so grateful there are people who care and will actually do something and it may be the thing that saves us sometimes from complete detachment in our encapsulated lives. There is such richness in needing others or in being needed - it's the very stuff of relationships. I'm sure you are a source of great comfort to those who are walking scary paths. You have ALWAYS been a comfort to me.Robynn's Ravingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619286823020924023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-38321170229747043152012-11-05T13:01:25.693-06:002012-11-05T13:01:25.693-06:00i wish i could be as grateful as you are, even for...i wish i could be as grateful as you are, even for the little things. you are such a positive and uplifting spirit and i thank you for that !!bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094533582512917616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-86729583693184134632012-11-05T12:36:54.081-06:002012-11-05T12:36:54.081-06:00Praying for good results from your scans!

As you talked about it permeating the air I could smell that familiar scent. I can definitely tell, like you, when the weather is going to change! <br /><br />You are an encouragement to so many...even me! Beautiful sky and lovely gifts. It is amazing when we actually are quiet and sit down to think about it, how much we have to be thankful for! In the business of life, we tend to forget. <br /><br />Thoughts, prayers and hugs, my friend!
