Thank you. It is the perfect ending to a day spent with two of my daughters and their families. I found the story in your meditation most fitting to the scripture that followed. Thank you.

By any standard, I am a Senior Citizen. When I graduate from college in the late 1950's and the early 1960's (from a titular Christian university), we had virtually no social consciousness. You and your classmates of similar values are the hope of our world. Thanks again. Arienne,

Like you and Apostle Paul, I am full of gratitude for such an amazing extended family. Arienne,
