Villette, I want to say that you give gifts far more valuable than money! When any gift is from the heart it becomes an invaluable present. Giving is like throwing a pebble into a pond and the value is in watching the ripples go and go til they reach something else and splash a little bit. I have been able to give from time to time, but I have received far more than I have given.
Thru this forum, I have met some of the angels that God has put on this earth to help and watch over us. I have the most wonderful little 7 year old boy pen pal because of this forum. I have his school papers and pictures all over the family room. I have eaten jars of homemade jams and pickles he sent all the way from Minnesota to MD. His messages have made me smile when I was down and, like the ripples in the pond, when I shared them with my grand daughter who is away in college, she has smiled. So, joy just keeps spreading and we don't always realize it or acknowledge it..
Thank you, Villette for starting this thread that we all can share the good in. |
