"Every once in awhile, people need to be in the presence of
things that are really far away."
Ian Frazier
'Absence makes the heart grow fonder' has been a well used phrase over the years. There are numerous people or places we take for granted until they are no longer available. Our lack of appreciation often becomes glaring only when it is too late.
There are those who have been serving us for years and it is a rare occasion for us to take a moment to compliment the server, the baker, the bus driver or the garbage man. We don't have to be a creative genius to say, "Thank you for a job well done!"
When our current restrictions are lifted and we are able to roam wherever we choose, let us express our gratefulness to all peoples, places, and things. As we once again feel the support of Mother Earth beneath our feet, let us endeavor to take better care of her ... personally and globally.
