From pp. 150-151: "A Final Thought
On Gravy From Nancy: ... But I guess maybe in the back of my mind I always knew
that gravy was the benefits of sewing seed and gathering the harvest... or
taking a piece of material and making a dress or shirt that I didn't have to
buy... or helping a neighbor and they gave you something in return... or praying
to God and having it answered... or raising your own worms and going fishing and
catching a lot of fish to feed the family...or taking food to a neighbor and
just hearing a big 'thank you'... or working 5 days a week and getting a
paycheck at the end of the week to pay your bills... or taking a day off and
taking a neighbor to the doctor... and God blessed you for it... or going to
church and being able to pray...There are lots of ways to make gravy. Like
smiling at someone and they smile back. Yes, gravy has always been around and
there has been a lot of gravy in my life...."
