Servanthood is enjoying others and making them think that you are doing them a good turn, - or whatever they need at that moment.

I was pondering words this morning in the moments before getting out of bed. Transport, portfolio, carport, export/import, passport and other porty words. It started with 'portfolio'. Folio = Latin (I suppose) for leaf. (Feuille in French and hoja in Spanish.) Anyway, a portfolio is a leaf - carryer, since port = to carry. Ergo Porters at the train station, and transport = carry over a long way, and pass port = to carry me passing over borders - you like??? And then import and export - to carry it IN and to carry it OUT. Super.

Port - able = carry aboutable. Too much port = carry me to bed. Ahh, it breaks down eventually.


I have inherited 150 flower pots from a person whose nursery/greenhouse business has been 'consumed' by the building of the new dual carriageway (divided highway for the Americans amongst us) from Lexington to Harrodsburg - it stops by Wilmore. Mr B has been ousted and I am the lucky recipient of his left overs. There may be more stuff, I should go over and see. It is a devastating event really, since there have been Bfamily residing there for decades and his dad probably owned the land and they made their living in nurseryman fashion. So sad what progress does to us all.

Be blessed y'all.
