Just my opinions and outlook on life |
| PROMPT November 10th Your neighbor’s hay crop is ready to harvest. Everyone in their family is sick and their Combine is broken. How do you respond to this situation? I am late getting this up and I have a world of good excuses. I don’t have much to contribute to this. I know nothing about farming although that is what my grandparents did as sharecroppers. I do know that farmers tend to help each other out. I would help any neighbor out, whatever I could do. I could use my nursing skills to make the family more comfortable. I could cook a big pot of soup. I would be the organizer and call someone who does know something about the actual farming. Surely someone has a combine that can be used. I can remember my Dad talking about barn raising. Neighbors truly did get together in the 1920’s and built actual homes and barns. I think people still care today just as much about each other. Americans are wonderful at helping strangers out when natural disasters happen, they raise money and physically do a lot. Churches and local people are usually your first responders before the government. People are mostly kind and caring and do what they can. I would also get kids involved. They are always proud of themselves when they see what they can accomplish plus they have the energy that I lack these days. |
