I want to pay tribute to wonderful people I have known, the wonderful country in which I live, the communities in which I have lived, the churches who have claimed me as their own, the God who sends shivers down my back when I really give him a portion of my time—well, maybe not shivers but tears flow easily in some of those most priceless times.

and you just thought you were the captive audience— we now know that it is actually Jessica— and I somehow think Jessica is the better for it!
Not sure I understand. I’m the big mouth; Jessica was the listener, but she got a big dose of my opinions that day. 😀 I’m going to call her is a bit and tell her she is the star of my blog today.
I always tend to think about those of us who sit in a chair while having things done to us as “captive” — left to the wiles of the doers— but you’re Jessica and my Margot become the captives to us in their chairs as they become our captive audiences 😛
Wish I could tip her a psychiatrist’s fee. 😀
I know right!!!!🤗
