People need people!

People need people. It sounds so cliche' but it's sooo very true. Here in the mountains of Va. we have experienced our first real winter snow storm. It has left many of us without power. We have kids animals and the threat of losing some food if we don't get them back on soon. Yesterday thank God my home didn't lose power at all. There were some flickers, but it stayed on. I have several friends who are without as we speak and i can only hope that they come back on for them sooner than later.
As we shoveled our driveway yesterday my neighboor who has a snow blower came over and gave us a hand. It's amazing how a job that takes my sons and i about an hour and a half to do, is reduced to 45 minutes or less! Anyway, after we got done with our driveway we proceeded to help our other neighboors. Some of which had to work and really appreciated not coming home to more work. I witnessed how important it is to have good people in your life in that instance. And how it's soo true that people need people!! Oh yeah...you can think you're an island all you want! But the truth is everybody NEEDS somebody. Soo to all my friends who are weathering the storm hang in there.
We all need each other especially when it comes to working out and doing things we many not feel like doing. Now i know you can't always wait on people to do things, but sometimes it's nice to have a little nudge to get going. Yesterday we went to the gym and got it in!! LOL! Call me crazy, but the mission is the same and we must do what is necessary to win!! Stay strong family and don't give up!! Retreat??? Never!!!!!!! Sodas down! Water up!! Peace and Love!!

  1. One of the best things that a person can learn and accept is that no man is an island. We need each other. Encouragement, support, and sound guidance do not grow on trees. When we find a source we have to appreciate it. Encouragement support and guidance are what your posts are all about. Thank you for sharing.

  2. Your welcome. I think it helps me to help others. At least you can take your eyes off of your own issues if only for a moment and possibly help someone else see a bit clearer. We are our brothers keeper right?
