We can be so independent..... and feel like we're 'being a bother' if we ask anything of our loved one. I was ill for a time after our last child was born, and one of the hardest things I found was having to be dependent on others. It was HARD. It gave me another perspective though, and I hope this helps me pray appropriately for others who are ill.<br />Thanks for stopping by<br />Love, Anne xHomeschool on the Crofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400742529025230433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439971908848990993.post-76364397582286127422010-06-22T01:28:13.750+01:002010-06-22T01:28:13.750+01:00What a fun idea to share wedding songs...I think o...What a fun idea to share wedding songs...I think often of our song..a hymn we made sure to include. It's called the Servant Song by Richard Gillard.

Life can be so busy. It's good to catch up on blogs and 'stuff' online too. I can learn so much from this amazing cyber-world!<br />As for the Gaelic singing. I'm sure you've never heard anything like it! When it's done well, it is so beautiful (though you may possible *have* to be a Highlander to *feel* it). I have to say though - if it's done....'not so well'....it can be torturous!!<br /><br />Virginia......aaahhh, Virginia. *My* place of places. And the home of my all-time hero! (See my post on Who From History would You Like to Meet?'. <br />Lovely to meet you, and here's hoping for a good recovery.<br />Love, Anne xHomeschool on the Crofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400742529025230433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439971908848990993.post-76174805769194114492010-06-17T20:22:06.919+01:002010-06-17T20:22:06.919+01:00I really enjoyed this post and reading all the sto...I really enjoyed this post and reading all the story of where the singing originated. I listened to the 3-min u-tube and have never heard singing like that before. I've lived in Virginia all my life (a southern state--and I say y'all a million times a day!) and never knew about Gaelic singing. Thanks for the educational and enjoyable post.<br /><br />I am home in bed recuperating after a round of surgery and getting a chance to catch up on a myriad of blogs that I don't often get to visit and comment on. I enjoyed my visit here.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03843672826198310903noreply@blogger.com
