You Are As Lonely As You Choose To Be. 12/8/2024

 Good Morning, 

I will be in my truck very soon and headed out to goose hunt in Illinois this morning. I will pack a Thermos bottle filled with Door County Vanilla Crème Brulee Coffee and I plan on enjoying every cup of it. 

Proverbs 18:24 A man who has friends, must himself be friendly. 

Last night we had a taco fellowship after church and I was able to sit with a very nice couple who have become regulars at church. They are quiet and very polite. They are bee keepers and they give us bottles of honey now and then. They are kind and always thinking of others. It seems that I know quite a few people like them. Kind, polite, considerate people seem to populate our Saturday night church services. 

They were interested in my blog and seemed amused as to how I drink a different Door County Coffee flavor every day. It's easy to do when you like their coffee. 

My point for the day is this. You can't get to know someone unless you  take time to sit down and chat. We probably have a lot of differences, but we share a lot of common interests as well. People relationships have one requirement and that is it takes time and effort to get to know others better. So, if you are sitting at home with nothing to do, and you are lonely, make a call, invite someone over to your place. Make the investment of time spent with others, fill your calendar. You are as lonely as you choose to be. 

So choose to be out there. You are a blessing to others if you choose to be.

Marty
