I thought, I know that of the half dozen regular readers here at salguod.net, several are from outside Ohio.  So, if you are so moved and can send a postcard in the next couple of days, <a href=\"javascript:var e1='s&#097;%6c&#103;%75od%2e&#110;%65%74',e2='&#109;&#097;&#105;&#108;&#116;&#111;&#058;%20', e3='%73&#097;%6c%67%75%6f%64';var e0=e2+e3+'&#064;'+e1;(window.location?window.location.replace(e0):document.write(e0));\" title=\"&#073;&#110;&#116;&#114;&#111;&#100;&#117;&#099;&#101;&#032;&#121;&#111;&#117;&#114;&#115;&#101;&#108;&#102;&#046;\">&#101;&#109;&#097;&#105;&#108;&#032;&#109;&#101;<\/a> and I&#8217;ll send you the address.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>My son&#8217;s first grade class is learning about maps and are collecting postcards.  When received they read the postmark and label where it came from.  Then they will read it to find out who sent it.  They would like the postcard to have a picture or info about where it came from.  I think it would soooo cool to have a postcard from a different country.  Would you pass this along and see if someone would be willing to send a postcard to the class?  He and his class would be very excited to have many different postcards and he would be greatly encouraged.  Thank you!!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This woman is one of the most encouraging people I know.  She&#8217;s a divorced mom of two with every reason to be a grouch, but she&#8217;s not.  Every August 26th I get a card from her and I wonder what that&#8217;s about.  It&#8217;s only after I open it that I remember that it&#8217;s my &#8216;spiritual birthday&#8217;.  Not only did she remember &#038; I didn&#8217;t, she got me a card!  So if I can help her son, who is basically growing up without a dad, feel special, I will do what I can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I received the following from a friend from church and a regular reader of my blog.
