Like Dave, we too have met people all over the world, like an ex polio sufferer in Australia who had to walk on crutches but he was hard to keep pace with. Or another ex polio sufferer in Indonesia who accomplished such great things for others! On and on and it only makes us feel guilty if we 'dare' to complain on a rainy day or when we're a bit under the weather.<br />But meeting such people has a special purpose and it sure leaves a lasting imprint in our hearts!<br />We're all blessed for encountering such great role models, true heroes of this world that make the very best of what is given to them!<br />Hugs and happy birding,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1519151644964316600.post-22531670622461656972016-05-30T18:49:26.794-04:002016-05-30T18:49:26.794-04:00I really do love the custom you and Miriam have wi...I really do love the custom you and Miriam have with your happy hour toast.
