A challenge from me!
Could we all reach out to someone today? Maybe there is someone in your past, maybe even from this very board, that you have lost contact with. Maybe you had a disagreement, maybe not.
I am just asking that you contact that person somehow, a phone call, a PM, an e-mail, or a card. Just let them know that you are here now & you want to support them, send them a hug & a smile!!
Speaking from experience, it feels really good!

Lisa,
You do not know how my heart aches to see this today. You see, I have a friend back home & I kind of revert inside myself when things get rough for me or I get depessed. My friend got cancer. Well, my mama died at 42 of cancer & 20+ years lafter, I still have trouble dealing with it. Judy called me several times & I did not call her back. I have been the worst kind of friend. I always say, I'll do it tomorrow, well, tomorrow will never come....I got an email this mornin, Judy died.
I will regret my actions for the rest of my life, but the other friends that I have neglected will get the attention they deserve.
Anybody reading this.....PLEASE heed Lisa's words & learn from my experience.
Thank you Lisa, for reiterating the lesson I should of learned a long, long time ago!
