This post was originally posted on January 4, 2018. Today, June 16, 2020… it still seems most relevant and important. Are you throwing a life-line over the bow and hoping it will be taken by someone you love, who needs help? Your role here is very important, but it may not be as a savior … but as listener and friend.
A rope tied to my heart
Braided from the fibers of fatherhood
Has been tossed over into the turbulence
With a prayer that your hand will grab it…
And I know that only you can grab it
This is my journey
