It’s in our nature to care and give. It’s in our nature to share. And I think our personal spirit seeks out those, and stays close to those, who have that same attitude, that same persona, so we have help close at hand when we need it." Dios los cria y ellos se juntan :) Thanks lambnuckles it is beautiful and true Nanni John:

But, it is very true...thanks to John, Heidi and our own Big Ed, we have all become one big family. Always there to support those in need, and throw a few bits of evil in where necessary. Lambknuckes, I am so sorry for your loss. Such a tragedy. My prayers are with you. Now I can’t get the “We Are Family” song out of my head.

In this morning's newspaper, Senator Bill Nelson of Orlando, Florida wrote: Nelson said a recent ruling that foreign-flagged cruise ships must make extended stays at foreign ports between US stops will NOT be applied to the cruise ships that sail from Port Canaveral and other Florida ports. He said the ruling was tailored narrowly to affect only cruises between California and Hawaii and that Justice Dept. attorneys were trying to impose it nationwide. Obviously, we aren't going to let this happen, he said, and further stated - We'll get this straightened out. WHAT A RELIEF as I live in Florida and will NOT fly- at least I NOW know I can continue to enjoy cruising!

You attracted those who are similar to your personality. It's in our nature to care and give. It's in our nature to share.If I may: On this last cruise, a couple weeks ago now, I decided to pick up my voice mail as I came into port in Galveston... I was standing on the Verandah deck with strangers around me and I started to cry. Just quiet tears. My daughter had left a message that a friend of mine had been killed (murdered, actually) on my second day of the cruise. I just stood there, holding the phone to my ear with tears running down my face... I was in shock...The woman close to me came over and put her arm around me and asked if everything was OK. I briefly explained and she just hugged me and held me...It's so WONDEREFUL in this world that people will take the time to care. It's so wonderful that our good Lord sends those to us when we are in need. I believe in our human spirit of love and caring. And I think our personal spirit seeks out those, and stays close to those, who have that same attitude, that same persona, so we have help close at hand when we need it.God Bless you for sharing this family with us... And May the Lord bless them for a long time to come!!Lambie John,
