It's a small world !!

I have a lot of details to tell you (tomorrow perhaps?) but wanted to hastily comment that I just returned from a social event where I met many other Wycliffe volunteers. I saw a familiar face (but couldn't recall from where) and boldly said "I know that face. Where are you from?" The man answered my question with a question: "Where are you from?" For some strange reason I said "California" rather than "North Carolina." I was astonished when he said "Lancaster." David quickly called his wife, and Norma couldn't believe who she was seeing. I got a **BIG** hug and listened while they told everyone around us "We knew Lorraine in California."

I'm old enough that I remember (the good old days) when Disneyland (Anaheim, California) had a "It's a Small World" ride. We saw animated characters dressed in their native costumes from around the world. "It's a small world after all; it's a small world after all; it's a small world after all; it's a small, small world!!"

It's a world of laughter

A world of tears

It's a world of hopes

And a world of fears

There's so much that we share

That it's time we're aware

It's a small world after all

There is just one moon

And one golden sun

And a smile means

Friendship to ev'ryone

Though the mountains divide

And the oceans are wide

It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all

It's a small, small world
