    Hurricane Katrina

    Extreme----sadness- for others-
     
    My guys and I were starting to feel helpless in regards to the hurricane-  We're not millionaires--- what can we do in the face of so much loss and devastation???
     
    The legend- below--(I know- totally NOT new)--reminds me--- it's not the size of the help we offer- but that we offer it at all--- that makes a difference--- to the one we can help.
     
    I can't rebuild all the homes- provide for all the losses- or wipe away all the tears.  However, I can give what I have- share what I can and make a difference- to this one.  
     
    Before I sign off---- I'll make a donation to the redcross- I'll look up the e-mail address of someone and send some encouragement.
     
     As for my guys and me---- We'll pray.
     
    What will you do?
     

    The Legend of the Starfish

    A small boy stands on the beach, the waves lapping on his feet, throwing starfish that have washed up on the shore back into the ocean one at a time.

    Noticing the boy and the scores of starfish washed up on the beach, a man walks up and says, “You know, you can’t make much of a difference here.”

    The boy, starfish in hand, looks up at the man. “But I can for this one,” he says.
