You gotta have friends!
Teamwork does not always come naturally to us. But when it comes to those we love it is essential. This is a photo of my daughter and my friends sons, helping their little sister, Monya, up the skateboard ramp. I thought this was a great picture of family. As my family and I move forward on life's uncertain road it is imperative that we all work together for the good of the whole and when one person is having trouble making it up the 'ramp' to offer our hand of support and encouragement. When that is missing life sure is alot harder, and the ramps of life seem insurmountable. I have been in both camps and I strive to remain part of my team, putting the others needs before my own. As I explained to my daughter the other day, if everyone on the family is doing this, everyone is being blessed. Judging by the picture, I see that she's already practicing this. She loves Monya, as do her brothers, and they were all immediately including her and helping her to participate. What a blessing and example. It feels good to lift up someone we love and seems right, but I wonder how good I am at doing these things for those I may not love so well? Hmm, food for thought.
