  I'm sitting here looking at a bottle of urlLink Elmer's School Glue , you know, the white kind that has a funky smell that kids like to eat! The odd thing about this specific bottle of glue is that I have no idea when it was purchased. I believe it was a bottle that I had when I was "knee high to a urlLink June bug ". (By the way, that's redneck for "little"). As if an old bottle of glue wasn't bad enough, it gets worse.
It's seems that somehow the glue has come apart. I'm not saying that it's lost it's stickiness. I'm saying that it seems to have separated into 3 types of liquid: white, opaque, and a light-brown watery solution. Well, I've said all of this because it totally reminds me of life. The people that constantly contribute to your everyday meanderings make up the glue of life. I'm not saying that God isn't a major part of life, because I find Him to be the bottle that holds all of us in one place. So, His role in our lives is the one that keeps us from drying out or totally being separated. Thanks God! **(More on Him in another post) Back to the "glue of life". Sometimes our lives get really crazy and we lose touch with the people around us.
These people are often the closest people, you know, friends &amp; family. It's sad to see our bottles sitting there with dust on them and the different parts of the glue separated, but as I pick it up and shake it I realize that it isn't impossible to set the glue back the way it was. Sometimes all it takes is a little effort and the realization that we might be drifting apart. My advice: Call someone you haven't talked to in a while, write them an email.
Let those that care for you know that you are still alive and that you care about them too. Hey, what's wrong with taking a break to stir things back up. &nbsp; Thanks God for being the bottle that holds everything together even when we try to separate ourselves!
