Simple, but so true Heather. And I think life looks a lot better even in tough times when we keep our minds focused on the simplest things. I'm glad we live in a small world where everyone is connected! XO
I loved your responses – so short yet to the point and such eye openers. Yes, we are linked, wonderfully and inextricably so.
This pairing of lessons seems just right to me, Heather.
Perhaps we need to remind ourselves – and each other – just a little more often.
Very thought provoking. True we tend to forget that we're interconnected. This brings to mind the question…"Am I my brother's or sister's keeper?"

Yes, it does: homing in on one true thing.
Hand in Hand – we can be strong! Strong enough to improve 'things' in the world, day by day.
You expressed it perfectly in a few words,Heather!
Warmest greetings,

Me too, Suzamahtooze. Me too.
So true, love it!
I think we're remembering more and more. Maybe? I hope so.
