Out of Normal: Don't you worry 'bout a thing...

Don't you worry 'bout a thing...

I often take for granted that I can pick up a phone, dial 7 digits, and have someone deliver a pizza to my house without too much thought. There are children in your country, your state, and even in your town that go to bed every night having not eaten today. I often rationalize that I cannot possibly make a dent in the problem. Is one life a dent? I sure as hell think that it is! Ok, let me ask you this.... If that one life just happened to be you, or God forgive me for saying it, your child, would it be a dent then????

Where would I be if I could be anywhere right now??? I think that would have to be someplace that is about 50 degrees, on the side of a mountain, sitting by the fire, and looking at the starts. Mmmm, I need a vacation. Where would you all be right now???

Baba's retreat in Myrtle Beach, SC...meditating by the ocean...sitting close to someone I love, contemplating the eternities.

Crystal Lake, Montana. Camping. Fire. Deer roaming around. Hot coffee with cream and sugar, in the gloaming. Without a doubt - coolest place I've ever been camping. Oh, and there have been times when I couldn't order a pizza, and, yes, one life is a dent.

Well, I just got back from a vacation down to Las Vegas and Yuma, but I could always use another vacation. I would probably choose somewhere in Mexico, probably by the ocean, I love the water. I also agree with Pam, one life is a dent. ps. nice caricature.
