Overwhelmed

I don't know if you have a Facebook account or not but ever since I started one over a year ago, I have connected with many friends and family members. It is so great to read about what other people are doing and share things with each other. I know Facebook gets a bad rap but it is just like anything else, you can use it for good or for bad. I choose to use it for the good. I get to interact with fellow church members, post pictures, links, and other things with people with the same interests.

Just recently, I was sent a message from Betty, one of my Facebook friends, that used to be a friend and classmate of my sister Pam. Pam had played the organ at her wedding and she had a picture of her that she said she could send me. I was so thrilled today when Mary brought the mail in and she said, "you've got something here, but I don't know what it is." I knew exactly what it was! I eagerly opened up the padded envelope and took out the contents. There inside was one of the best pictures of my sister Pam that I had ever seen. It captures so much of her. It was taken on July 3, 1981, she was 18-years old. It makes me sad to look at it but overwhelmed at the same time. I am so thankful to have this picture and even more thankful to have such fond memories of my late sister.

If you have a Facebook account, look me up.
