If you see someone
Who desperately needs your help,
Of course you’ll reach out.
But most people seem
Afraid to really let on –
They hide what they need.
Too proud to reach out,
They act like everything’s fine.
Sharpen your feelers!
Reach out secretly.
It’s like that wine meme I saw:
Make it a fun game!
Hah, I did just that!
But was surprisingly caught!
Yup, laughter is good.
What is one small act
You can do to cheer a friend?
How about a card?
consider inserting a tea bag or a seed packet.
Lord, make me a channel of Your peace…
This is Susan Boyle at her best –
So pure, so sweet, so inspiring.
To be loved – as to love with all my soul –
It is in giving to all that we receive –
Where there is darkness,
Only light;
Where there is sadness,
Ever joy!
from me and my daddy!
Hah! I used to have dark hair like his was.
See ya tomorrow.
Thanks for visiting JanBeek.

Jan, this was just so beautiful a post… I leave veggies… my neighbour leaves me magazines, Our other neighbour shared left over seedlings.. What a difference ONE SMALL ACT makes.. 🙂

No apology necessary, Sue. You have been out working on your plot… doing active and important stuff. Good for you! <3
Yes Good for the soul indeed Jan…. I always feel better for my connection in Mother Earth <3 Sending LOVE and well wishes Jan. <3
Jan, your discussion and poetry always inspires others. I have been feeling a bit out of touch with people back in Montana, especially grandchildren. I am planning to use some 20th Century communication tools . . . letters.
Very good idea! You may or may not get a response, but at least you will be assured that they know you are thinking of them. <3
I like sending letters to people to brighten their day.
Good for you, Eliza. I do, too. It’s a dying art!! Thanks for helping to keep snail-mail alive! <3
What a wonderful recording – one I have not heard before.
I am so happy you took time to see and listen. Aren’t the words beautiful? And Susan Boyle’s voice is so angelic! Have a Wonderful Wednesday, Derrick. I have you & Jackie in my prayers. 🙏🏽❤️
