“In the beginning of life,
when we are
infant,
we need others to survive,
right?
And at the end of life,
we need others
to survive,
right?
But here’s the secret;
In between we need others as well.”
~ Tuesdays with Morrie
Tom and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary on Sunday. One of the things we did was to visit our dear friends who had recently celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary (Wow!). Fran & “Auntie” Hilda lived two houses down from me when I was young. They were good friends to our family and have been a part of the love and support Tom and I have felt all of our marriage.
Morrie Schwartz
had it about right. In the beginning and
end of our lives we need people but in between we do as well. If we are lucky enough to realize that and be
grateful for those who gift us with their time, laughter and perhaps a pizzelle
cookie or two, we are lucky enough.
Thanks for
reading.

Note: Tuesdays with Morrie: an
old man, a young man, & life’s greatest lesson by Mitch Albom ~ a
great read
Prayer: Gracious God, your
answer to any question I have had has always been to love more. Help me to follow your guidance and to love more every day.
Action: Who has been a personal support and inspiration to you over the years? Wouldn't a note or call to thank them or simply saying a prayer of gratitude for them be a good thing?
