Some Days... Are Some Days

Have you ever had one of those days where you feel almost unbearably grumpy - you say something in a sharp tone and then inwardly kick yourself? Right now, I feel that way, and it has a lot to do with having a migraine, today. So, I'm thankful for the little things.

I'm thankful that I don't have migraines every day, as opposed to once or twice a week.

I'm glad that I can talk to Abbie about the dangers of shaving your legs when you have goosebumps (razor burn sucks; let me tell you).

I'm thankful that I can be a good friend when it's important - even if sometimes I feel like I'm failing.

I'm thankful when God shows me what there is to be thankful for.

I'm glad that I can shower in the dark without dying.

I'm thankful for Holy Week. It's so awesome.

I'm thankful that it is so easy to smile - even when I'm in pain.

I'm thankful that my memories are so clear. I can remember the best and brightest of them when I'm low.

I'm thankful that it's a rainy, cloudy day.

I'm thankful that we're having supper soon.

I'm thankful that you all love me. That is a miracle, and I never take it for granted.

I love you all.

Sarah D.

It is a mindless philosophy that assumes that one's private beliefs have nothing to do with public office. Does it make sense to entrust those who are immoral in private with the power to determine the nation's moral issues and, indeed, its destiny? .... The duplicitous soul of a leader can only make a nation more sophisticated in evil. ~ Ravi Zacharias
