Yes, Go live.<br /><br />A related experience (I think): Many years ago my sister-in-law gave a Christmas present in our name, or gave us a Christmas present, of a whale in the ocean. I can't remember exactly how that worked... Or was it a dolphin? Anyway, something endangered she was letting us take care of with her gift. Hmmm....<br /><br />Fast forward 20 years, and I had the urge to give "education for one year" to a girl in Afghanistan, so I am giving my $58 gift in this s-i-l's name, because I know she won't be offended, and she would be all for educating women. <br /><br />I know, this is a bit of a stretch from educating the conscience, but it's about giving, at least! <br /><br />I don't know how I missed your blog for so long, but I enjoyed it so much in the past and will try to renew my checking-in habit.GretchenJoannahttp://www.gretchenjoanna.comnoreply@blogger.com
