Are my eyes deceiving me?? Is that the Sun? I am so glad to see the sun shining today. It seems as though the only thing everyone around here has been able to see the past few weeks was snow and darkness. The past few weeks have been trying times for everyone with all the power outages and no water due to the freezing temperatures. These are times when friends, families and neighbors pull together to make sure that everyone has heat and supplies. It was a lot of hard work getting some of our friends and family dug out of the snow in order to pass along much needed supplies or even moving them to warmer conditions. Even though these times make you very tired and weary at the same time your heart is warmed with the love and heartfelt ‘thank you’ received in return.
Hopefully, these sunny days and warmer temperatures will continue for a few more days and help melt away the ice/snow and give us time to restock and get everyone settled. These sunny days warm the heart and soul of everyone who has been under the weather and shut in. We all look forward to Spring and the sunny days ahead. Seeing the sun in the mornings is definitely a good way to start the day.
On a much grander scale, everyone needs to send their heartfelt thoughts and prayers out to the victims of the Haiti earthquake. Also, we need to remember relief workers and the military personnel that are working in Haiti during this crisis. Let the Lord be with them during this trying time. SG
