On Needing Each Other
Dad is in South Carolina this week. I find I really do not like being alone. I don't function well. Although I sometimes get several projects done that I otherwise might not do, I don't think I would like living alone over a long period of time.
Sunday I bore my testimony in church. I haven't done that for a long time and only did it because I felt my testimony was getting weaker for not sharing it. I had several people come up afterwards to let me know they appreciated me...that hasn't happened for a long time either. I think we really need people to let us know they care about us. Visits, phone calls, invitations to do things...all of those things that say"I need you", "I love you", "I would really miss you if you weren't here".

Yep. That's one lesson I've learned more at college than anywhere else. People and relationships are what matter most. Each of us need to feel appreciated and loved. I also have observed a direct connection between my showing appreciation and love, and receiving it.
Mom, I hope you don't mind me saying it but you sound so human in this post. I love it, and I love you.
Thanks, Gordon.
