Back to work . . . .

I had a nice three day weekend. The birds were singing, the sun was shining. I saw family and friends. The overall experience was wonderful! However, the clouds rolled in and I had to come back to work. Actually last night as I was setting my alarm clock to wake me from a peaceful sleep at 6:30 am, I had already started to whine. And then the little voice in my head to me to be grateful. So it got me thinking, how wonderful life is. I have a job, and it is really a good job. I sit at a desk and type on the computer, I get free internet access (don't tell the boss that I use it), I have fun co-workers, and I have a decent schedule. Among this, I have my health, I have my family, they have their health, well my Grandma needs knee surgery, and I prayed for her last night, but she is still going strong. She is the person I wish to be more like. Life has not always been pretty, but she has made it the best life she can have. She is a strong, caring, loving lady, and I am very grateful for her. I have great friends, and they are healthy (besides a cold/allergies). Everyone has a home, food, and the ability to walk, talk, smell, feel, and hear. Outside of that, what else does one really need? God bless.
