The phenomenon known as "6 degrees of separation" is intriguing to me. Before I was married, when Patty and I lived in Phoenix, we met some people who knew my Uncle Tom when he was in high school. They also knew my Grandmother. I mention this because I believe in the power that sharing experiences has on other people. I've learned so much about myself by absorbing what others do, say, and how they act around others, and I would be naive to think that in some way I didn't have that same effect on some people. We are all social in some way, some more than others, and anyone who really knows me knows that I enjoy meeting people and entertaining some sort of discussion, or at the least, a basic conversation.
It is my hope, that by sharing these stories, I can allow someone to discover something about themselves they didn't already know, or inspire someone to share or confide. Communication is powerful. Even when it's done with adversity. I hope you'll all follow me into the world of sharing. Thanks, and God Bless.
