Wish me luck.

Maybe I should mind my own business. But I don't always do that. Or another way of putting it, I make it my business. For instance, in my neighborhood, there's something going on. That some neighbors gossip about. In hushed-hushed tones. About a family situation. I suggest that the family needs help. That the matter should be addressed. Directly. In helpful ways. And that I'm gonna talk directly to the principals involved. No, no, don't do that, I'm cautioned. In other words, leave the situation fester. Mind my/our own business. But that's not my way. I'm waiting for just the right opportunity to get involved. In a positive, constructive way. Wish me luck. --Jim Broede
