Jacob & Rachel

I googled "Bible verses about love" and this was the first one I found:

And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed unto him but a few days, for the love he had to her.

 Genesis 29:20 kjv

In this story, Jacob falls in love with Rachel, Laban’s younger daughter, and arranges to marry her.  As payment to his uncle, he agrees to work for him for seven years in order to marry Rachel.  And Jacob clearly loved Rachel very much.

I couldn't pass it by without posting it. It made me smile.
Love makes me smile.

Is there/has there been someone in your life for whom you would work 7 years?  Would they do the same for you, if they had to?

The Reveal

Rachel Smith came to me in a dream last night. She was wearing her crown. She told me to learn four new things everyday. Something about myself. Something about the people I love. Something about the world. And something about a stranger.

So here goes, for today—

Something about myself- I forget that I look mean to strangers if I don’t smile. So I try to smile more.

Something about the people I love- whenever I feel I can’t do something, they say I can
Something about the world-  I worry about the condition of the planet during my future grandchildren’s lifetimes

Something about a stranger-they’re waiting for me to start a conversation.  Once I do, they’re friendly and receptive. Otherwise, they’re quiet.

Normally I dream of  some member of my family, or winning the Powerball, or visiting Toronto, or being a guest on Oprah (with some famous director wanting to make a movie out of one of my stories) or Halle Berry.   Rachel Smith is nice too
