Being Helpful...

first off...yea for friday! so glad it is here. busy week i have had. i hope yours was better. please send off good vibes as i have a presentation today and i could really use all the well wishes and prayers etc. needed. already got one from my love so that is a start :)

had a safety meeting and well, it went well but now, i will admit, i am a little more worried than i was before. our country has become scary and yes, mass shootings are now becoming common. never thought i would have to worry about it in places that are "safe" such as work and/or school. a little on edge right now and you know, i really do not know what to do, i think i do, but when fear sets in....who knows.

so glad the folks on the cruise are back safe. what an experience it must have been. i cannot imagine. makes you think twice about a cruise now does it not. i will say this, Americans may be at times mean or have the attitude of "hey, i got mine, go get yours" but i will say when it comes to a major event or disaster, Americans are there for each other and are willing to help out any way possible. look at past events...9-11, Virginia Tech, Hurricane Katrina and Sandy, Mass Snow Storms, The 2012 Election, and even Newtown, CT. we managed to put our differences and aside and stand up for what is right and help each other out. i just wish we did not have to wait until a major event or disaster to be willing to lend a hand. thoughts? happy friday!

  1. It is human nature to wait until something happens to help and it's really sad.

    1. you are right Jen. it is human nature to wait in reality to do anything. it is sad, but i am glad we at least have it in us to do right.

  2. We actually booked our next cruise last night. Lol what can I say, it's addicting! It was nice to see all the people on the ship helping each other out and building their little tents and all together.
