Abroad And At Home….
Hey Taverneers, Jimmy Buffett wrote a song a couple of years before his death, “We’ve Got a Lot to Drink About.” Indeed we do. We’ve got the craziest EFFING politics ever, life ending and altering storms, war drums beating everywhere, and those are just the confirmed ones; fill in the blanks on the more conspiratorial ones of which there’s no shortage. But with all the mayhem around us, with which we are inundated every day 24/7, let’s purpose not to forget those of our number who are enduring health problems, either of their own, or those of a loved one. Donna B. is going through it with her husband, Carrie is too with a very sick friend, Les Tyranny has really been through the wringer as well—bitten by a Tarantula!!! (I saw photos of the wound), and also do check out our alternate discussion site CANCER TOWN. It doesn’t take 20/20 vision to see that right here at the Paine.TV universe, and closer to home on the Tavern and Cancer sites (among many) we’ve got plenty to pray for and support in any way we can. I won’t go into my story again, but to say there were so many Tavern members who kept me afloat both during and after Trish’s ordeal. It’s a debt I can never repay. Now it’s time to share that same love and support to our own who are suffering either themselves, or ministering to someone who is. There are folks among us who run out of money before they run out of month, there are people mourning loss, folks who are depressed or who are living proof that sometimes life just sucks. Please reach out as your heart leads. Really, when the walls are crumbling around you, and nothing seems sure, a kind message in your Paine.TV inbox just saying saying someone is thinking of you, or praying for you might just be the thing that gets you through that day’s crisis. That much I know. Or if you don’t “message,” post it here at the Tavern. There’s no wrong way to show kindness and support. YOU PEOPLE (Taverneers 😉) are some the greatest folks I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet and know. Don’t let the world wear you down. We get by any way we can, and who’s to judge; but we also, like the Ranger creed, “You never leave a fallen comrade behind” (paraphrased). We never get so down that we can’t send that message, and that message might make an unfathomable difference. 🙏🙏🙏 Love y’all!
