I remember how my grandfather was, (and still is frugal) concerning food, and a lot of our home's resources; and I was told growing up that it was because of how he grew up.<BR/><BR/>What you say about relying on ones neighbors, families, and friends to pull through makes me think about the love that the Master asks us to have for one another; loving one another as we love ourselves. Remember the community of believers in the 1st Century, and how the scriptures say of them that they had "all things common" and "sought not there own, but the things of each other"? That is a reality that can be lived out today as well as back then. It doesn't even have to be on a major scale, it can be something as simple as giving food, or spare change to someone in need. Or helping a loved one out with their finances, or any resources we may have that they may lack.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing this. Take Care.Danny A.
