As I have been sitting here thinking about this and again trying to remember and learn more from it, I am reminded of a feeling I had that Christmas Eve. It wasn't the roast beef and mashed potatoes and gravy or the Christmas cookies or apple pies...it was the table cloth and real plates. It seemed that it made these men feel that they weren't throw away like the paper plates and plastic utensils.

My God! I should pray everyday that I never make anyone feel like they are disposable. That is my thought for the day - make everyone I greet or meet today feel valuable.
