This
week’s blog was prompted by the ever loquacious and downright mirthful Carol
Barker.
I
met Carol almost 20 years ago as a pen pal. She lives in England, and while
we’ve never met in person, we are truly sister in our hearts. We went from
letters exchanged by snail mail, to email, to instant messenger and now to
chatting all the time on Facebook. We have shared everything in our hearts with
each other. She’s a Brit and I’m a Yank but together we are a complete matched
set of loonies.
We
discovered we are so much alike in many, many ways. Our likes and dislikes. Our
faith. Our kids and grandkids. Our rather unique sense of humor.
The
biggest similarity though…is our downright humility and humbleness. We are
practically saints, I tell you! We try to outdo each other in our selflessness.
If one of us sees a spot on the other one’s halo that needs polishing, we
immediately see that it is taken care of! If one of us loses a feather from
one’s wing, the other will happily share one. We positively glow when we walk
down the street. I honestly doubt that the world could handle it if we were
ever to meet in person. You would probably see such a glow as to cause
blindness. And of course, we would never want that to happen…we are far too
nice for that!
Ah
well. It’s not likely that we will meet this side of Heaven, but watch out!
When we DO meet, there will be such a clamor! ♥
