Do other people think like that? Do they even notice if they do? Do they care? Have I ever thought something like that before and not realized it? Can I be that bigoted without noticing? Why did I even think that thought?<BR/><BR/>My prayers for a good recovery. I look forward to reading your thoughts on this portion of your life and I know I will continue to learn from them.Natehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618854813842730346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5074683.post-40506144997721728132008-05-17T05:22:00.000+01:002008-05-17T05:22:00.000+01:00Ditto, on the prayers, dog.
