Several years ago in the comic strip Peanuts, by the late, great, Charles Schultz, Charlie Brown was enamored of "the little red haired girl" but he was too shy to approach her directly. One day she passed by and dropped her pencil which Charlie picked up and as he was trying to build up the courage to give it back to her he noticed that she had chewed on the pencil. He clutched the pencil to his chest and cried out "She's human!!" I think that is what we (I) sometimes forget. While we are all human with our faults, baggage and frailties we also have our gifts to share.
Thank you for the reminder Charles, Charlie and Kim.
