Count your blessings

Even in times of financial uncertainty,

It is always important to keep things in perspective.

You didn’t go to sleep hungry last night.

You did not sleep outside, in the cold.

You had a choice of what clothes to wear this morning.

You had a decent breakfast and hardly broke a sweat today.

You had nothing to fear or be afraid of threats or enemies.

You have access to clean drinking water every minute of the day.

You have frequent access to medical care, especially in emergencies.

You have access to the Internet, and probably free WiFi in many areas.

You can read, you have the right to vote, and you can go to church without any fear.

You have your family together at home, not running in the streets at night, and the children snuggled in bed, or even reading the bible or praying together.

Some people might say you are rich, at least wealthier than two-thirds of the world’s population.

So, remember to be grateful for all the things you do have.

A note about this blog: It's been less than 2 weeks that I started this blog, but already I'm getting close to 150 hits daily, mostly from the USA, Malta, but even from India, Ukraine and Russia. Please, share the address with others and spread the good news. Finally since I am posting from Malta, 9 hours ahead of the USA, the date that appears on top of each post is a day later, since I am still registered in the USA. I usually post at 6 AM, Malta time, when it is 9 PM (a day later) in the Western USA.
