Her husband is also gifted with insight and compassion. :-) Oh Nadine, that is so sad about your neighbor! I agree with you it is so sad that we have closed ourselves off. It is rare to see a true community these days. In fact, I don't even see kids outside much anymore. I sense though that many long for those connections so I hope we find a way to break down those barriers. About the directions, that is very funny! I know it is because they sense your kindness. Hi Spagetthipie! Ah, yes so true that every gift also comes with responsibility. I do not take that lightly. I would love to hear more about your thoughts on creating community. It is an issue close to my heart as well. E, lol! The occasional rant is pretty good, eh? I may do that, in fact....lol! Have I told you ten million times that I am so glad you're back? I'm glad you're back! Jamie, your Dad sounds like a sweet funny man. Does he also share your gift for writing? I think that's funny about the gas station. lol! A tank of gas and confession all in one place. :-) Robert, I am not at all surprised to learn Mrs. MZM has that gift. Her husband is also gifted with insight and compassion. :-)

It happens everywhere, especially at the gas pump. It happens to my dad too. He says we have the Eyes of the Ancients and people can't help but tell their tales. So, I know when people are going to call me before they call and I can get unsolicited tales of horror and strangeness while filling up at $5 a gallon. Now if I could just tune in some lottery numbers! Great post, Karen. Glad to know I am not alone out there. :) Jamie Grove - How Not To Writes last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HowNotToWrite/~3/338041723/" rel="nofollow">The Maybe Flower - What Maybe Does to Your Writing</a> Strangers blurt out the most personal details of their lives to me as well.
