I've been so thankful for my little ...Hi Mary,<br /><br />I've been so thankful for my little community for so many years. We've been faithful to one another through birth, death, and everything in between.<br /><br />Today folks have so many avenues of support that they don't think they really need one another, but they do. Years ago we were absolutely desperate for one another--and probably would have died emotionally without our friends.<br /><br />Interestingly enough, after I speak, the biggest heart cry is that the person/family feels so lonely. I encourage folks to exchange information, but I wonder if they ever get together afterwards.<br /><br />Richard Swenson, author of Margin, said, "The more radical you become, the more support you need." This has certainly been the case in our family's life!<br /><br />Perhaps folks aren't so radical anymore? Could that be part of it?<br /><br />May the Lord bless you and keep you, sister! I wish we lived closer to one another. It would be fun to go thrift shopping with you. :>)<br /><br />In Him,<br />TinaTina Farewellhttp://www.bobandtinafarewell.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451423572048459832.post-52843294025489192282011-06-15T08:42:58.153-07:002011-06-15T08:42:58.153-07:00I loved reading this and glad to know you enjoyed ...I loved reading this and glad to know you enjoyed being a part of our community for a brief time.
