And I've learned over the past couple of years that YOU get to let them know exactly what you are able to give. And they gladly accept that from you. Trust me, it was such a revelation. I stopped ducking folks. I used to think it was up to them! Life got a little easier when I realized I controlled it... _____ From: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com [mailto:scifino...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Martin Baxter Sent: Monday, February 16, 2009 10:04 AM To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [scifinoir2] OT: On a personal note... Thank you, James. And I was in Danville. You know, that part of the Commonwealth you've been trying to give away for years? (Thanks for the thought, Fate. Could've used a lemonade Friday at about three..) Everything went as well as expected there. And, as I suppose we're all meant to do during such crises, we learn a little about who and what we are in the world. Myself, I think I've been handed the mantle my late uncle carried, as mentor to all of my younger male cousins. The number of contacts in my cellphone doubled in just under two hours. A little daunting, as I think about it. But I'm told that I can handle it, so I believe such. Again, thank you all for your words and thoughts. ---------[ Received Mail Content ]---------- Subject : RE: [scifinoir2] OT: On a personal note...
