I'm always searching for things of worth in the blogosphere and rarely find them. (Although I did accidentally find some hideous porn this week!) Some of what you describe, being able to see the good in people, I identify with. I just don't take it the next step & do the things you do. Wow. I really am in awe. I don't say that lightly.pamajamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06444975335485780889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5235715250548029188.post-68475591386991052172009-01-28T15:01:00.000-06:002009-01-28T15:01:00.000-06:00That is a wonderful story.

It is so true that we can never know what another is going thru at any moment. It's hard to know how what we say or do to them will affect them. There have been times when a loved one will tell me of something I said to them that was long-forgotten on my part and yet meant a life-lesson to them. It's so important to let others know just how much they matter. You have a real gift for this, my friend. Thank you, for showing us in such a beautiful way how we all can make a difference to each other.Smart Mouth Broadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12157189992200894945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5235715250548029188.post-53634304559967342532009-01-25T20:15:00.000-06:002009-01-25T20:15:00.000-06:00This is an amazing story.
