For me it is about comparison: 2 hours is way better than 12, so it's practically "up the street."

For me, living on the island of Tasmania, a 2 hour drive from Launceston to Hobart seems like a world away whereas to you, it's just around the corner.<br /><br />I like how you point out that we have a responsibility to encourage and nurture anybody we can, not just those who are closest to us.Adam Collingshttp://collingszone.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6059703145604803817.post-78983206808375131822012-05-14T15:47:31.718-07:002012-05-14T15:47:31.718-07:00Thank you Michael, Jack and Sandi.

So I pray for them every day, for their protection, for their future spouses, for blessings on their efforts, for their career paths, for their friends--for God's guidance to the best path for their life.
