Occasionally we get a chance to see the value we bring to others. A thank you, a concerned query about your health, a request for help. Today I was asked to help find some heating wood for the winter. I don't buy firewood for my place, but I do know a little about the local suppliers, so I offered as much help as I could. The most significant part of the conversation to me was the answer to my question about why I was being asked: "I figured you would know, and I know you wouldn't send me in the wrong direction".
While I may not know much about firewood, I now know a bit more about my value to at least one person.
