Healthy soil and sustainable growing

My goodness, my church is NOTHING like that nor is my town.  We are all pro-active and work together for the good of the town and everyone in it and in the outlying area.  I won't tell you all where I am as you might all want to come here.....Hehehe  We have Lions who do a lot, a food room for those who need help, and a used clothing store supported by all the churches and manned by volunteers.  There is a group that tends to beautify the city and a group who cleans the parks, etc.  We have several paraks and are right on the White River.  OK, don't want to give you any more location.

You did a good enumeration of the institutions, Paul. Pretty frightening when you start thinking about it.  I'd add churches (I've quit after 40 years in order to gather with my family and neighbors instead) and service clubs like Rotary and Masons.  Meeting with strangers to try to add meaning to your life.

My husband remarked this morning that men seem to talk about nothing but sports because they have nothing else to talk about. Most don't care about anything they do inside those institutions, and don't think about trying to change anything for the better. Nothing real to talk about. Even the weather is meaningless if you never venture outside except from car to factory!
