Whiterose,
I was about to ask you where it was you found this list, then the CARE icon popped up with the hands surrounding it (I have dial-up, so sloooooooow)


I think these lists need to be printed all over the world, at any given moment to remind people. Just like they pass other things around in emails, etc. all of the time.

After reading this list, It had me sitting for a while trying to think of other ways to show people that I care. I mean, I show them on a regular basis, and my husband and family say that I need to show myself that I care about me but I still sat to think of ways after reading this list.

Thank you Whiterose. I know it may seem insignificant to some, and at times, I may even pass it up, but this was a very, very good idea!

You are a "caring" individual!

Be Blessed!
