Scripture says, Each person should use whatever gift she or he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms. (— 1 Peter 4:10)

I may complain about the cliff, but I hate it when others only see my shortcomings. My friends and neighbors all know that I will drop everything, at a moment’s notice, to be there for them! My gifts of listening, having a car for those who don’t, and my grief and bereavement support inclinations belong to others, not me.
