USEFUL

These trees may not be useful for giving fruit or building a house but they are useful because their roots provide stability.  They give shade and beauty.  They are useful in different ways.

Being busy and active creates feelings of usefulness but my life has changed and is slowing down.

I can remember as a child being told to make yourself useful.

Wards can be useful to help us gain knowledge and understanding.

Words can be useless when we try to change each other.

"All we have to be is what we are."

Our study group starts to-morrow.  It is good to get together.  It is hard to get back into trying to answer the questions in our book.  It is useful to share our opinions and our difficulties.  Every person answers from a different place in their life and there are no right or wrong answers.

We welcome the ebb and flow of each season of our lives that will continue to change us.

It feels like fall and the colors of the leaves will gradually change.  I am thankful for each sunny day.
