Caring

Do all people we deem “friend” truly care about us? Probably not. Do we care deeply about each of them? Perhaps we don’t! How dare I say that? Do all of us sacrificially consistently actively show we care? Those who, in a lifetime, experience a FEW deep, caring relationships with friends and family are SO blessed! “I care” should be proven with deeds. True friendship goes beyond Facebook chats. Lord, help me practice what I’ve preached today!

Well said, Janice, most especially the last line which should supplant, "Amen!" Aloha! Rico

But, but, but, but... Caring never came naturally to Mr. Zuckerberg. That's for sure... ~ Find me off of Facebook :)

People keep so busy, they're stressed and don't have the inclination to care about anything bu their personal mental survival. There's an epidemic of time wasted playing games on the computer, de-stressing I guess... perfect excuse for not having time to call and say a simple thank you... I just shake my head.

Sad but true, Line! At times I realize I have not been compassionate (Hindsight's always 20/20); I pray to be made more caring. THANK YOR for your comments. Janice

A true friend does not sympathize with you weakness; he/she helps summon your strength.
