pour out.

my big girls fed a loaf of bread to geese that were standing in our backyard this morning.  

i'm ashamed to admit that i had to stop and take a deep breath looking for the good 

in that bread being 'wasted.'  there was a lot to be found: compassion, love, 

sibling bonding time, ingenuity & resourcefulness.  

the snow is so cold, mom, and we knew they had to be looking for food.  

i need to learn how to more freely throw my stored up, precious 

bread [or perfume] out to those who may need it more than me

[or just simply to show love.]

[Mary 'wastes' expensive perfume by pouring it on Jesus' feet.]
