Farewell but not goodbye…

This last blog has been a longtime coming and probably one of the most difficult blogs to not just write…but to convey to the people who read it.

Seemingly a longtime ago, Nanette had a vision, and by grace I was allowed to partake of that vision. Humanbeams.com was birthed out of her determination to bring the lives, not the news, but the lives of others to the forefront of people’s minds. Nanette is perhaps one of the most kindred people that I know. The sufferings of others quietly outrage her.

Suffering causes me much outrage as well, however my place in life is the same and yet very different from Nanette’s. My place is not on Humanbeams.com

My place is to work with addicts and when I made that decision some time ago, it required a 100% commitment to that calling.

Nanette’s calling is to deal with the suffering on a global scale…I am not nearly as gifted and capable as Nanette to work and organize on a global scale. My calling is to deal with the sufferings of people closer to home and closer to my heart. The only way for me to realize this is to devote my time and efforts fully…to that calling.

As Humanbeams.com rolls on into its tenth year of online publication I wish all of the contributors and the readers well and am believing for another decade of great reading, insight and leadership with Nanette Kelley at the helm of the ship.

Thank you Nanette for allowing me to take part in something beautifully thought provoking and of course, fun.
