Worry With ME!

When I told about the message Everyone has his own agenda, Gram thumped on the dashboard and said, “Isn’t that the truth!  Lordy!  Isn’t that what it is all about?”

I said, “How do you mean?”

“Everybody is just walking along concerned with his own problems, his own life, his own worries.  And we’re all expecting other people to tune into our own agenda.  ‘Look at my worry.  Worry with me.  Step into my life.  Care about my problems.  Care about me.'” Gram sighed.

Gramps scratched his head.  “You turning into a philosopher or something?”

“Mind your own agenda,”  she said.  ~ From Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech

And you shall love the Lord your God out of and with your whole heart and out of and with all your soul (your life) and out of and with all your mind (withyour faculty of thought and your moral understanding) and out of and with all your strength. This is the first and principal commandment.  The second is like it and is this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.  Mark 12:30-32
