Sometimes I am too self-contained.  I take care of myself and I rarely rely on other people for help.  This morning, though, I'm reflecting on how important it is to connect with the people in your life.  I'm blessed with wonderful daughters, beautiful grandchildren, fabulous siblings, and true friends.  To have those people in my life helps me stay connected to the world.  This weekend, I'm going to make sure to each out to people and let them know how much I appreciate them.  Maybe you'll do the same!

The image with this podcast is a watercolor painting I did called "The Farm".  It's a view of the trees at my friend's property.
