            A Coloradan moved to Texas and built a house with a large picture window from which he could view hundreds of miles of range land.  “The only problem is,” he said, “there’s nothing to see.”

            About the same time, a Texas moved to Colorado and built a house with a large picture window overlooking the Rockies.  “The only problem is I can’t see anything,” he said.  “The mountains are in the way.”

            People have a way of missing what’s right before them.  They go to a city and see lights and glitter, but miss the lonely people.  They hear a person’s critical comments, but miss the cry for love and friendship.
