It Takes A Village

Years ago, Hillary Clinton made a statement that "It takes a village to raise a child". I agreed with her then and I agree with her, more so, now. The only thing is, I would not limit this statement to a child. I think it takes a village just to survive in this world. I can only assume that "taking a village" was a euphemism  for support system. Even as an adult, I find that I rely more and more on friends and family around me. I am a very capable person, but there are still many things that I can not do alone. It is nice to know, that if needed, I can call on a few loyal "villagers" to come to the rescue. I am sad to think of people that do not have this. I would like to think that I give as much as I get. It is like a bank account. You need to make deposits before you can make withdrawals.
