BOAT

This imperfect community is in this together.

'There is no private leak in a boat.'

If we were all in one boat (we are, actually) and you discovered a leak down where I was sitting, would you think: 'I'm not going to mention that leak to Kevin.  I'll let him find out about that on his own.  And when he finds it, I'll let him figure out how to fix it by himself?'

Or would you think: 'I'd better let Kevin know about that right away and try to help before this boat fills with water?'

Of course you would do the second.

There's a right and helpful way to handle a leak, since your leak (my leak) will eventually affect everyone in the boat.  There is no private leak in a boat.

We're in this together.

And be blessed.
