Yesterday I had to sit back and gain perspective on my first world problems. It helped. I think most of us do this automatically ... because our lives are really just not that bad. Yeh, we have financial worries. Yep, arthritis is a big bother. Eating healthy is ALWAYS an option (that sometimes we do not take).
There's an ad on Craigslist in Maui. A young college student is asking for help for her four younger brothers to have a bit of Christmas. Single Mom and she is working fulltime to pay for her studies. She was looking for gently used games and trucks.
And then I saw this post on a friend's Facebook page.
Sums it all up, doesn't it?
Wonderful sentiment. We get sidetracked sometimes and need a reality check, don't we?
ReplyDeleteYep. I often forget how lucky I am.
