They Were Robbed!

 

Attention Bloggers! 

 

This is such a sad story*. A family was robbed of all their valuables.  What a violation. What a horror.  If you would take a moment to ponder how horrific it would be to imagine a stranger rifling through your personal possessions! It rates high on the heebiejeebie factor for me. Let's hope none of us ever has to go through such an ordeal.

 

Luckily, there was a witness.  A brave person who stepped forward and put the welfare of the robbed family above his own.  He broke away from his own busy day and sat in a hot and stuffy police station.  He had to endure coffee that looked and tasted like tar. Chaos enveloped him. He sat with his eyes closed, intent on maintaining the sad and awful memory. At last, the police artist came forward with pencil and pad.  He sat down and together they laboriously worked together and came up with a complete and detailed composite sketch.

 

Here it is.  Please, look closely.  Your help could aid in bringing justice to a poor family in need. Burn this image in your memory bank.  If any of you have seen this person, please, please call the police.

 

Do any of you recognize this person?

 

Thank goodness for talented artists!

 

The world is a better place because of the talent they share. 

 

Such magnificence, such greatness, such genius!

 

This sketch will lead to justice! Thanks to this composite sketch, hope is still alive for the family who has been robbed of so much.

 

And thank the goodness of one lonely neighbor who was astute enough and willing to describe his observations of the intruder. The police artist captured it perfectly!

Now, onto happier news. Some of you might remember this outgoing gentleman who graced my blog a few weeks ago.

 

He's back! And he is ecstatic.

 

Why?

 

He found out he has a sister! His mother gave her up for adoption at birth and she grew up in a city just a few miles from where he grew up. At first he felt robbed of the life experience of growing up with an older sister! He was so sad at the thought of it. So imagine his delight when she showed up on his doorstep and they were able to spend some quality time together. They never realized they had so much in common.

 

He contacted me to share this lovely picture of, Rearburta. (It's the Swedish form of the more recognizable English name, Roberta.)

 

This sad story gratefully, has a wondrous and happy ending.

 

So take a moment to reflect and be grateful for your own family.  Take another moment to be grateful for another day that passes without danger and dangerous sights being imposed upon you and your loved ones.

 

Families, the glue of society.

 

Give a family member a hug today.

And if that doesn't work, go hug a blog!
