Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	I read this story in a sermon. The story is told of a little child in an African tribe who wandered off into the tall jungle grass and got lost. The tribe searched all day. The next day all the tribal members held hands and walked through the tall grass together. They found the child, but she has did during the night. Her mother cried, "If only we had held hands sooner!" Ladies, let's all hold hands together!

After my dad died our friend Kate B. gave it to me and it reminded me of all the times when I was small that my dad would hold my hands to help me brave the ocean waves. In so many ways, the women at this site have held each other's hands through so many big waves. I am so thankful for you all.

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	smile, I remember that too and I think it was the eighties, but I can't recall why either. Anyone remember? What was going on politically then? See, I told you I had a bad memory, but if someone jolts it...it will all come back. At least I hope!

Kathryn Member Registered: 11/20/02 Posts: 317 Loc: Towson	I'm sorry but I'm snickering here....a bunch of menopausal women, trying to remember why we held hands across america in the 80s. I can barely remember 24 minutes ago, let alone 24 years. Why don't we remember....was it drugs and alcohol, was it being mothers to small children, or was it all the hairspray we needed to maintain 80s big hair!? I'm sorry again, I just had this image of all of us standing on a highway at some predetermined misty dawn moment and wondering if there would be enough people to make it across to the median strip let alone to california. Just let your minds go now and imagine the possibilities....
