the story you tell/for Angela

it helps to have someone to point things out and tonight you did that for me

i hope to offer the same concern for others as the concern you showed for me

not in the tone or fashion that would lend itself to critique…..but far from that, to a simple word that may offer some relief

we all have a story and we tell it everyday, the evidence of how we live is amplified more by what we do than what we say

i have no intention of befriending everyone i meet, but i can offer everyone respect and their space

if i can be of assistance God will let me know and more times than not it merely involves an atmosphere of love and tolerance

this story has had many turns and today you were part of it

and as the story continues to unfold i will continue to accept and learn from the people God brings to me
