Life Connections

In the last couple of days I have experienced a need to feel connected to those in my life. I have a cell phone, an email box, then I created a "my space"and most recently created this blog thing. For what ? To find a way to stay connected. Easy access. One big priority - to stay connected to my kids who have moved away from home. I miss them so much.

Relationships are important, special and need to be cared for. Families and friends are separated by distance and time. Seasons of our lives create different situations. Sometimes life and lives get so busy that good intentions to make a call, write a note or get together are lost or fall to other priorities.

This is on my heart particularly in the last 24 hours - I saw my niece Candace & kids yesterday long enough to share hugs and kisses; then I received emails from two cousins and a girlfriend that I haven't been in contact with for a year. A dear friend, that happened to be in Tyler due to an ill relative, called this afternoon. I talked to Leah & Ryan this weekend, as well as brother Karl.

Hold on to those you love, hold tight. Don't let time go by without telling family and friends that they make a difference in your life. If you are reading this blog, know that you are a part of my life,
"I love you."

"May the Lord watch between me and thee, while we are absent, one from the other."
