Ninety and Nine

Connie just posted this link on Facebook.
I think of my precious children, of their most faithful and beautiful spouses, our wonderful parents and brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews, and so many friends who set such a shining example for me.  You, my dear friends, are part of the ninety and nine.  And I thank you for that. Thank you for your struggles and your successes, thank you for your faith and your love.  You are doing just fine!

P.S.  This also, I got off of Facebook  (see it isn't all bad, after all):

"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."-Elizabeth Kubler-Ross.
