Two weeks out of December, two years in
succession, and Christmas just around the corner. On December 7th Christine and
I joined a team of volunteers to fly to Kauai where we served with Habitat for
Humanity. Our 16-person group was daily divided on two different work sites,
coming together for lunch each day, and of course driving home each afternoon.
We met the Habitat leaders each morning in their Hanapepe work yard, did our
circle, prayed, and then holding hands, extended out and then up as we recited,
"we don't offer a hand out but a hand up."
I reflect with pleasure and gratitude over three score and twenty years before the memories fade. Nostalgic random autobio stories from a life and occasional commentary on current events and people in my life. © Ron Unruh
