Living In Context

I heard a phrase in my mind's ear the other day: Living in Context.

Context is the surroundings, circumstances, environment, background, or settings which determine, specify, or clarify the meaning of an event.

What a definition! In the midst of life happening, we find ourselves in and through the context of the bigger picture. We can't simply take one of life's happenings and make it the whole. It is only part of the context of life.

The people I surround myself with are a part of that context. I am blessed. Thanks for the coffee and chat. Thanks for letting me email you, facebook you, to vent, to cry, to laugh, to joke around. Thank you for being part of the context of my life for this time and season.
