May Ask A Small Request. If You Could Kick a Couple Bucks To The Red Cross Or Other Relief Efforts For The South Please Do.

I try not to ask for too much and I try to help others when I can between being a sarcastic ass.

Last week we had a member or members have some family who got hit with the severe weather and this week LOTS OF FOLKS got hit including several I know.

I’m not asking you to mortgage the house nor am I asking you to tell of your support or pledge anything specific here. All I am asking is if you have a couple bucks you could kick in to help those folks in the South there are a great many who would appreciate it.

Frankly for me this kind of thing is sadly what I call April.

Also I am a FIRM believer that heartfelt prayers DO MATTER and I am a FIRM BELIEVER that the Good Lord doesn’t care if you are a believer or not so even if you could just offer up kind thoughts.

As always take care, shoot safe

I pared down my giving as I don't have any income any more. But I've kept two and one of them is always where disasters are anywhere in the world along with doing other work like building water wells and bringing doctors where needed.

"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Salvation Army might also be a choice. RC uses a lot of monetary donations for "administrative costs".

I just sent a contribution to Mercy Chefs--they offer free meals.

My income doesn’t allow giving either. However, I shared some of my blood with them this past Wednesday.

Our little town of Newnan got smoked pretty good but volunteers have come out in droves to help with everything imaginable.
Great to see.
