THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION

During my second month of night school, our professor gave a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until I read the last one: "What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?"

Obviously this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper leaving the last question blank.

Before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count on our quiz grade. "Absolutely," said the professor. "In your lives, in your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care."

I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her first name was Dorothy.

Howdy, Kathy.

I see the fog FINALLY disappeared at the airports a couple of hours ago. The last time the cam aimed in your direction, there was still a blanket of fog over there but I don’t know if it’s hugging the base of the mountains or extends into your part of town. The cam op has had the cam aimed west to admire the gorgeous sunset for a little while now.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, radu, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

Hope you had a good day...is it still cold?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Dear God:
I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman,
Marine, Sailor, Soldier, Reservist, National Guardsman, or Merchant Marine
feel alone or forgotten.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is loving kindness,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
And He will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.

Psalm 130:7 & 8

Hi Everybody!

Ceiling is VERY low, but the fog has retreated. It’s mid 20s and they say snow is coming tonight.

[radu]

Yes, it’s still cold. Tonight will get colder than last night because the sky cleared. Clouds last night kept the temp from dropping to freezing, barely. We’ll drop into the 20s easily tonight.
Made it up to 51 this afternoon but it was only 44 on the mountain when I let the military museum, and the wind had a harsh bite. brrrrrrrrr

Great lesson, Kathy! It’s an important lesson to learn that no one is insignificant or unimportant. Thank you for posting this. God bless our troops, and thank you for your service! 😍

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...and a Blessed Lord’s Day and Shavua Tov to you and yours.

Glad you and Tippy got in a good walk. Stay warm!

[radu]

Glad it finally lifted over there. She still has the cam aimed west so I haven’t seen what’s going on over your way for a while.
The fog sure was thick today and didn’t want to give up.

Now to see if THIS snow mass makes it over the mountains. The last two were apparently shredded.
