I always leap before I look. It tears me apart to think of a child out there missing and a parent's heart pain. I didn't think it might be a no-no, I just pushed the button and it was gone before I realized I might not should have. Again, my apologies. I won't say it won't happen again, because as I say I leap before I look. But I will try to be more responsible.

We all make mistakes from time to time. I worry more that I'll send an R-rated joke out to all my cuzzins who are preachers!

McNamara" <knox@tngenweb.org> Subject: Sharing, Caring, and Christmas Spirit All Year Long Mizz Jan Philpot's "Sunday Afternoon Rockin'" for this week.... Please remember to credit her when you forward her musings -- but do forward them! ============================================================================ From: "j" <unicorn@sun-spot.com> Afternoon Yall, Setting here reflecting... on how full of love my heart is right now, and how right that seems for this season that celebrates the Greatest Love of All. And it came to me that it is a little odd just how many ways that love in our hearts is nurtured and cared for until it becomes full to bursting...what the vehicles are for traveling about and putting that love in hearts. I personally think the Lord deliberately uses just a lot of things in this old world to do exactly what He intended all along...that we love one another. And you know, I truly believe that one of those vehicles used has been the net. With all of its flaws, all of its shortcomings, and all of the many things out there on it that are "wrong"...well there is a lot of good too. I have seen acts of kindness and generosity unmatched on these genealogy lists and sites, and you have too. They are not really random, but an everyday occurance. Folks going out of their way to find a gravesite that means nothing to them personally...using their days off from work to go spend hours searching for information that means nothing to their own research. They sit at a computer and do lookups in books hour after hour, and they expect not one dime in return. They aren't looking for glory or honor or money or power, or none of the things this world seems to think is so important. They send special things that have nothing to do with them- obituaries, books, photos, marriage records...and expect not a single thing given back. And that is just the tip of the iceberg... they start to caring about each other in ways that have nothing to do with genealogy too, and send cards when they know someone is sick, and caring notes, and they start to acting like family ought to act toward each other. And pretty soon you know something is going on that is bigger than any genealogy site, bigger than any list, bigger than any of us. And you start to know that the real goodness in folks has been tapped...and "genealogy" is just the vehicle it happened to travel in this time. Seems to me that in its modern way, this is not really much different that what our folks did a hundred years ago. They lived lives in which kindness and helping one another was not random, but an everyday occurance too. And they nursed each other, and they helped with the crops and the barn raisings, the building of homes, shared their food, took each other in under their roofs, helped each other bury their dead. Not that all that does not go on today, but now as a general rule, folks seem pretty isolated these days in their reaching out to one another as compared to the days in which it was sheer survival to do so. Well now here we are, in a new kind of neighborhood, and we don't want to get isolated to this one either...and forget about the one out there near our doorstep where a meal or a visit or a bit of help would be much appreciated. But in this new kind of neighborhood, seems to me, we can see something real special, real inspirational, real renewing of our faith in people, yes and real close to what our Lord always intended...and quite plainly REAL. Yes, the vehicles for bringing out the potential gift that lives in the hearts of all men are varied...sometimes they travel fast, sometimes slower, and they show up in unexpected places. They grow out of things that maybe were intended with a far different destination than the lasting and deepest, most meaningful one of all.... The caring of a total stranger...the willingness to give of one's time and energy for someone you never met in your life, and aren't likely to...for someone you have never hugged, don't know the color of the eyes, or hair, or skin...don't have a clue where they live or how they live...how important they are or how much money they control...don't know if their beliefs or religion mesh with your own... Well it appears to me, that the caring of a stranger toward a stranger expecting nothing in return, is one of the greatest forms that Love can take. And that is my thought for the day...and why my heart is full to bursting, Bless you every one, jan ------------------------------ End of knoxcotn-digest V1 #25 ***************************** |
