Today just isn’t my morning so far…
Woke up almost an hour later, traffic was a parking lot, my foot is hurting, i burnt the shasta out of my mouth and i haven’t been able to eat (without pain) for about 5 days, my face has broken out like a 13 year old, AND i dreamed about Justin Bieber last night…apparently i have bieber fever.
. . .
Yet it is a constant reminder…so many people do not have the blessings that i do.
That isn’t to say that my problems don’t matter, they do, but there are those without the basics.
There are beautiful people who are fighting against cancer, people saying goodbye to those they love, men and women fighting for our freedom, children starving and dieing without clean water.
You get the picture.
I, as an American, take for granted absolutely everything.
I don’t like to use a porta-potty because they are nasty, i get ‘starving’ and go out to eat because i’m not interested in eating the TONS of food i have in my pantry, _______________ insert whatever junk here.
Don’t you agree? We are a spoiled country.
So with that being said.

Love this post! How true is that, I'll join you in being thankful today!
Praying your day gets better.
Isn't it crazy what we dream about!? Two nights ago I dreamed that my older sister was born before mom and dad were married and one of my brothers were adopted. None of it true haha. Bizarre!
Oh, Amy! Sorry for the downer of a week you've been having.
Thanks for reminding us to be especially thankful in those times….Bad days (months, years) are definitely part of the "all things" we are to be giving thanks in.
Keep your chin up and your eyes focused on Him! See ya tomorrow, can't wait to see what you have planned to share with us!
My post for Friday is already ready! And it's reaaaally frank. I hope your day gets better from here!
Don't worry…I have Beiber fever too π
It is so important to be thankful during these moments….sorry you're having one of those days…do you like Modern Family? If so..just think it comes on tonight!!! That will get you smiling.
This is an awesome post. I have to admit, I have been feeling like a downer lately and I love these little reminders. Thanks for this post! I hope things get better soon!
Sorry it has been a rough morning. Love that you are focusing on your blessings, though!
