...tell me a story

today at church...
there was a story teller.
she was very good/comical/and drove home an important message:

everyone has a story - that makes them who they are - and you do not know there story - so be loving and understanding...and get to know folks. relationships are the most important and valuable things we have.

we are all so much the same - and at the core we have the same needs.

this message, talked specifically to me - my life

i sat and listened
i laughed at the appropriate times
i absorbed
i had a moment
i was sitting between two dear friends - and i thought about our relationships with each other
overwhelming blessing

...some lovely relationship quotes...just cause i dig quotes:
  • Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind.  "Pooh!" he whispered.  "Yes, Piglet?"  "Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's paw.  "I just wanted to be sure of you." 
  • "Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom."
  • "Some people come into our lives and quickly go.  Some stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same."
  • "It is of practical value to learn to like yourself. Since you must spend so much time with yourself you might as well get some satisfaction out of the relationship."
