Scattered throughout our home are rugs from various countries where we have lived, including one from Afghanistan where my wife served for a year with USAID. There is also a picture she took of a young British officer and his dog. The soldier stepped on a land mine and was killed not long after, and his dog died of a broken heart in a matter of days. Our hearts break for what is happening to USAID and the consequences for countless persons whose lives are improved by the programs AID has offered.
No matter the topic, Julie, you bring such deep consideration and contemplation to my mind and heart. This is true with the rugs accounting. Thank you…for so much.

Hearts breaking here, too, Dave. Thank you for sharing these connections. Someday I hope we can compare notes about them all.
