"Nothing makes the earth seem so spacious as to have friends at a distance; they make the latitudes and longitudes."
--Henry David Thoreau

When I saw this quote several days ago I wanted to post it on a beautiful bright sunny day, to say hello to all the friends here from all over the world. We have New Zealand, and of course Australia proper Malcom :) , Canada, UK, the States--many places where my friends live, and yours too!

The age of technology has allowed us to get to know people from everywhere, to absorb their cultures albeit constricted, still available to learn from them and enjoy. I have greatly loved to read Ruth's thoughts on eating from Australia, and certainly Janet's dishes and customs from the United Kingdom. Even from the different regions of the US, it has been great to share.

The earth because of you all is smaller, closer and much nicer place! Thanks everyone for being so supportive and so caring, for chiming in on your opinions, and for always being ready to learn a new way to support our friends in being healthy.

Friends are so important to me, the older I get the more I realize how incredibly wonderful good friends are. What a group we have here in "PP Central" :cool:

Have a great day, join me today in reacing out to a friend, tell them thanks for being supportive and caring!

Wouldn't it be COOL if someone invented something that the world could communicate with others from around the world, and they could do so without getting dressed? :D

Sometimes we're closer with people over the Internet than over the fence.
