Edith and I are looking forward to watching another season of CFL football. Our favorite team - there is really no other team - is the one that has won the Grey Cup the last two times, 2019 and 2021. As we watch this year we hope that Winnipeg will win the Grey Cup “just one more time.”

There is a hymn some of us remember - “I shall not be moved.” After we have sung the song we should have a degree of stability - having repeated the words “shall not be” or “I shall not be moved” 26 times.

But, at times we do become unsettled. What then?

If we are honest and grateful we will have told someone, “I could not have made it through that crisis if you had not been there with me.”

We may feel strong and believe we can make it through life without any other person’s help. We know that when we were infants, we needed other people to help us. This will apply at the end of life as well.
