This week brought to you by the Aspen Trees

If I stopped reaching out,

life would go on without me but would it be mine?

Like the roots of an Aspen, if I stand alone, how long do I stand for?

My only tether based on my own strength.

Yet, if I reach out, if only for a moment, we are connected.

Intertwined together, our strength is shared.

Strength to yield at times.

Strength to be held & supported with at other times.

What if we don't merely survive stagnant on our own strength?

What if to thrive is to reach out, to pour out, and to receive?

Reach out & love on someone today. It can only make US stronger.
