I would like to think I am an appreciative person. I appreciate all the blessings I have, but I also like to remind myself sometimes that life has been unfair to me, too. What a hypocrite! Life hasn’t been unfair to me at all. I could list a hundred tragedies or unspeakable terrors that people are going through all over the world right now, but I won’t insult your intelligence by doing so.

I need to be better at being truly, humbly appreciative of my life, my family and all God has blessed me with. Life can change in an instant.
