| I'll start a new one, if I may. These last few weeks have been very trying for our family because of the death of a very dear member who lost her fight against cancer (damn that disease). Last night, the enlarged family got together in a nearby church rec room for a pot-luck supper (as we love to do) just to 'lighten up', to coin a phrase. While we were eating, a young itinerant came in and asked the person closest to the door if we might have some leftovers for him to eat. Several of us rallied together to get him a plate of food, and a huge piece of chocolate cake to go with his coffee. He chose to sit discretly in a corner near the door and ate ravenously, thanking each person who passed by him as he wolfed it all down. When he was done, we provided him with another large lunch for the road. Dirty and weather-worn, the young man was polite and appreciative, and when learning of the reason for our huge gathering, his eyes filled with tears and he promised to "pay it forward", which curiously(coindcidence? methinks not, but that's another story) is a favorite practice in our family. He yelled out a thank you and with a happy wave he was gone. Imho, it was like a sign from our beloved departed one: See how you are happy? Be grateful with what you have got and share with others. Ok, ok, enough bawling! This is a prelude to the theme of GRATITUDE. Songs about gratitude, paying it forward, giving... 1. Give Peace a Chance - The Beatles 2. Imagine - John Lennon 3. Give a Little Bit - Supertramp |
