I have someone in my life that has visions of my differing iterations from time to time. She's seen me in ways most of you all wouldn't know what to do with... but she could take it. Besides, it's better to only have to explain it to less than a handful than more than a few. This time she saw something different... she simply saw me on the ground as she picked me up. Why was this different? Because I'm usually the one doing the "picking up"...
I suddenly felt a warmth at the hearing of it. Eyes even welled up a bit. As though it was something I didn't know I needed to hear. In that moment... my sister picked me up.
Folks, you may have people in your life you know are strong. You know they have need for very little. You know they can always be turned to. You know they will be calling you back. Please don't take that for granted. Please don't forget that they are just as human as you are and although they may seem to not need encouragement... they will welcome it in ways that you may never fully comprehend. That call lasted all but 3 minutes but it's effective "charge" is good for about 3 years. Remember the strong... they weren't always so. I'm out...
