I know my children don't have a clue as to how blessed they really are--it's good to look around in the world and see the reality of things.

Honestly, your comment about us all being brothers and sisters was really eye-opening for me. Of course you are right. If we have the opportunity to help, whether at home or abroad, we should do it. No matter the why or wherefor ... if we can, we should.ali crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13023009704454279645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6955870368116018367.post-32850924399984379772008-10-15T14:13:00.000-07:002008-10-15T14:13:00.000-07:00Thanks for the link...good thoughts as well.
