Thank You

 

Hello Friends,

I am writing this on Friday, to post for Monday. We are bracing for a blizzard. 

snow + high winds = danger

During my morning walk with Ernie I was doing a mental checklist of what we need to do to get ready for the storm. 

jugs of water

batteries charged

phones charged

check with family

 Then I started to thank all of those men and women who are at the ready in this weather. 

Our linemen, who keep the power on. We already have some areas without power because of the high winds. 

Our snow plow drivers, keeping our roads clear.

Police who will come to your aid no matter the weather. 

Then I started to think about all the farmers as they prepare for the storm. Taking extra steps to be sure the animals they care for will have what they need to endure the storm.

Extra feed, shelter, water and more.

When I look at the big ugly world it can look really dark and ugly, all the fighting and hate.

When I start to come in closer to my community, my neighborhood, my friends and family, it all looks a lot more like love.

As I rounded the corner to head for home, I saw our neighbor finished cleaning the end of our driveway from the snow we received last night. It was too heavy for me to clear, I was waiting for my husband to clear it when he returned home from work.

Go. Be. Love.
