Great Quote

"An unshared life is not living. He who shares does not lessen, but greatens, his life."
Stephen S. Wise - Reform Rabbi, Zionist Leader

     It is a mistaken belief, especially with men, that to need others is a weakness.  To give of myself to others, and to receive help from them, is to slowly lose little pieces of myself till eventually nothing is left.  Nothing could be farther from the truth.  I believe that God uses that giving and receiving as a tool to chip away the parts of me that don't belong, much the way a sculptor uses a chisel on marble.  Slowly, God is revealing HIS masterpiece, the me that I truly am meant to be.
