It is a beautiful sunny day in Southern California. Outside my window, the birds are singing, and all is well in my world. It is amazing to me all the gifts I have received through no merit of my own. Though the outside world is at war, you wouldn't know that in the serenity of my back yard...and that is the point. Why do some people wake up to hell, pain or any number of disasters and I wake up to this? I kissed my husband goodbye this morning and I have every reason to believe that he will return home safely tonight. My daughter is still slumbering though it is almost 10 A.M. and my sons are doing who knows what 700 miles away in school in San Francisco. No news is good news I guess. I have been blessed. I enjoyed my childhood, I had great parents and I have terrific brothers and sisters...seven of them to be exact. We have the ability to pay our bills on time and, most importantly, I have my faith. Will it sustain me in times of trial? It has so far...let's just hope my good fortune holds up for awhile longer. And I promise, I'll keep the rest of you in my prayers because I don't take any of this for granted. Oh...and thank you, God. Have a great day.
The blastometer gives today a high five!
