Circle of Trust

I have talked about my father in previous CoTs.  As I have said, he is not in good physical health, but mentally, he is all there… Which can be like a prison sentence…  I talked with him on Sunday and he was not doing well… He was very angry and depressed.  I brought this up in CoT this morning because I wanted to repeat a message that I have given a couple times to different groups.

My father’s best friend is a man that I call Uncle Jack.  Uncle Jack is one month younger than my dad.  They are both 93 years old.  But they could not be in more different places in their lives….

My dad sits in a chair all day because he doesn’t have enough strength or stability in his legs to get around on his own….

My Uncle Jack plays golf once or twice a week in the summer, volunteers at a food pantry and still drives himself to the Knights of Columbus and Hibernian Club to play cards with a group of guys.

So why are they in such different places (physically)?  In my father’s own words, the difference is that Jack….

NEVER STOPS MOVING

So my message to all of you is to NEVER STOP MOVING.  If you have friends and loved ones that are in a similar state as my father, please pass this message along.  Hopefully it is not too late for them to change the course of their lives.

We prayed for our friends and families that are suffering of mind, body or spirit and asked for God’s loving embrace upon their lives.  Especially – Appletini’s brother, Tom, Tiny Bubbles and Half Price’s MIL, Ginny.  We thanked God for the day and asked for His Guidance and Wisdom as we go about our daily lives.
