While sitting out in the cool air on a swing, this grandmother notice her granddaughter/grandson who had come to visit for a while, sitting at the end of the porch, and crying. The grandmother softly call out for him/her to come and tell her what was wrong, he/she replied; "how is it, your place thought to be for refuge has become your lonely place, and those sharing it become as strangers", his/her grand mother says; "dearest child, you struggle in your mind for reason to understand what is the need, and or method for remaining in a dry place", the young man/young lady, wiping away tears from his/her face responds; "yes, because it really hurts and is very puzzling" she, gently smiling, responds; "sweetheart, there is one of three reason for your current experiences, #1 there are those which for whatever reason grasp and hold on to ignorant moments, #2 something was said or happen that reminds them of past bad experiences, #3 the realizing of not having or willing to hold onto what they themselves first thought to be", he/she replied; but, why does this have to happen to those trying to do what's right, she hugs and kisses him/her gently on the cheek, and says; "life has it's way of getting you to realize how important it is, to never allow yourself to become solely dependent on anyone/anything besides God Himself, and, whatever strength or weakness inside of you, is that; which comes to play for what ever decisions made, for you're making it or not through that time."
