Who hasn't taken pride in doing something that no one thought could be done? It gives us satisfaction to do something difficult, to lift our head high and say, "I did this alone." We take pride in being the best we can be.
But we can't find happiness in the pride that sets us against our fellow humans, saying, "I don't need you," or even, "I'm better than you." We do need each other. And each of us has strengths, weaknesses, and God-given talents that God expects us to use to help each other.

So very true. That darn ego rears its ugly head now and again, you know?
Sorry I haven't checked in here at your Dream. I do have some fine train photos for you from our trip, and some really good diner and cafe reviews that I'll get to soon.
How was the fair? "Hey look, that lady is still on crutches!" said the little boy as he pointed towards the patio.
Thinking of you all the time and hope that this saga ends soon with a wonderful outcome. You sure are paying some heavy dues. (Maybe for that cop car incident)
Much Peace sent your way
