How very sad for her to be on that trip and deciding to keep the truth quiet until the trip was over and she was home again. My heart fell and I prayed for her. <br /><br />Thanks for being encouraging, Debra!Robin in New Jerseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07373250627112138763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024018.post-1835800925003324782016-07-12T10:39:09.450-04:002016-07-12T10:39:09.450-04:00The thing that always helps me is getting closer t...The thing that always helps me is getting closer to nature... even if it's only walking around my own yard. Sometimes I sit in the porchswing and look out toward our pond, and that swinging motion, blue skies, and singing birds transports me to a peaceful place.

No news, no computer. Well...it's limited anyway. I get so depressed when I hear the news, but as you said, it was foretold in the BIble. You are welcome to come visit me at my cozy getaway anytime.<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9024018.post-33671536552651576222016-07-11T16:55:21.075-04:002016-07-11T16:55:21.075-04:00Hi Debbie--I do that, too!

Perry Como, Andy Williams, Nat King Cole, Henry Mancini, Percy Faith, etc. It takes me back to much more thoughtful time.
