How to Keep Growing

OK, So it's been 2 weeks since I returned from Africa.  Do I have to go to Africa to GROW THROUGH AFRICA?   I don't think so, but those components that go into growth WHEN I go, must continue to penetrate my life WHEN I AM HERE.

In Mississippi we didn't ride the financial waves of Florida or California and so when the recession hit, we didn't feel it hurt financially like they did either.  Now, when I observe that the "super committee" threw in the towel yesterday, there is something in my heart that hurts, thinking that such gridlocks represent something significant in our country. The stock market keeps rumbling like pre or post shocks of earthquakes.  What is going on?  No one knows, but we do know that when IT DOES HAPPEN, America will FEEL the affects more deeply than our friends in Africa.

I think I better keep GROWING regardless of where life takes me.  As I've written all these months, very few people have chosen to join in with "their comments".  I think the dialogue would be healthy for all of us.  So, could THIS post be that "push" we need to begin helping one another explore ways we can grow?  "Let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds."

Think it could help?
