As I watch the whirlwind of snow drifting down to the rooftops, trees, grass, I think about how beautiful the snow is and how awesome life is. I am safe, inside a warm and cozy home. I have shelter, food, water, and a family that loves me and cares about me. I can definitely use improvements, but I am fairly healthy, overall. I have an income to support my family as well as friends and family I can turn to when I need extra help. I have a spiritual background that has fostered a love for God and helped me to get through many trying times over the years. I have all I need. I am so grateful for the life God has given me and the ability to take care of myself and others in my care.
As the fluffy snow turns to sleet, I think about those who are less fortunate than I am and strive to find ways to help. I hope to teach everyone how to recognize needs to help themselves as well as others.
