wordy wednesday...

peace to all within, love to all without...

i don't normally comment on the photos i take for wordy wednesday, as i feel that a picture is worth a thousand words.  however, today i had the opportunity to take part in a habitat for humanity build with my friends.  we built a 5 bedroom and 2 bathroom house from this pile of panels (actually there were 3 piles).  while i was staring at the daunting task at hand, i began reading the blessings those who built the panels wrote for the homeowner.  we were out there building not a house but a home for a lovely family. it was exhausting and physically demanding.  just when i didn't think i could hammer another nail, i found the strength to do it one more time and then another and another.  when we were done for the day, the 20 of us had raised all the exterior and interior walls, set 2 bathtubs, and wrapped the majority of the house with tyvek.  it was a glorious, sun-shiny day for all.

peace,
k
