Thankful Thursday

 

Times are so uncertain.  This is very strongly on my mind tonight.  We are living day by day right now, in many ways.  In this time I am thankful for our communities – fire department, church, friends, community groups.

Growing up I never saw the community around us.  I know the people were there and were supportive of one another.  I don’t know if my kids see the communities around us either, and I guess that really doesn’t matter.  Now, as an adult and a parent, I see and feel the communities – the people around us that support us and each other.

And I am thankful for them.

I have seen over and over again in times of need, the support.  Support comes in so many different ways.  Physical.  Mental.  Spiritual.  Friendships.  Teaching.

I love the “coming alongside” that I see almost daily around me and my family, and around the families in need around us.  I love being a part of the “coming alongside”.
