Comments on: Lighten My Load http://lessonsfromthelaundry.com/2007/06/15/lighten-my-load/ How a mom found peace in the piles Wed, 19 Nov 2008 03:55:25 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 By: Amy http://lessonsfromthelaundry.com/2007/06/15/lighten-my-load/#comment-2542 Amy Mon, 18 Jun 2007 18:09:26 +0000 http://lessonsfromthelaundry.com/2007/06/15/lighten-my-load/#comment-2542 What a great post and reminder of what I want/need to be like as a friend to the hurting. There are so many out there with big piles of wet jeans that just need someone to roll up a laundry cart. I want to be that person to help today. :) What a great post and reminder of what I want/need to be like as a friend to the hurting.

(No pun, intended, honest!) I'm glad your load is lighter these days. Mine is, too, but I know how quickly that can change. I have a few friends who are facing unbearable circumstances right now. Your post reminds me to be there in whatever way I can for them and to thank my lucky stars for the "annoying" things in my life today. Susan C.

This post reminds me that we've got baskets of clean and unfolded laundry to deal with...as well as the dirty stuff which has yet be attended to. If that's the worst I've got going right now, then life is pretty good. Thanks for coming by my blog.

Thanks for being my laundress today and lightening my load. I’m lucky to have a friend who can put into words what is hard for me to express.

I had a little trouble finding your blog too since it wasn't linked to a blogger blog it was giving me an error-type message!

I do have those types of friends who will listen and pray with me. Sometimes it is so hard to ask for the help. But thinking about it the way you say it, that someday my load won't be as big and someone else's will, makes me feel not quite as guilty for taking someone's time. Thanks.
