Gratitude

Today at work I heard a co-worker say, out loud, to someone, “Life sucks and then you die”.

WOW! How sorry I feel for her.

My life is so rich and I am so grateful for every day that I have. 

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not all roses and puppy dogs, so to speak, in fact, there are MANY areas where my life isn’t picture perfect.  Who’s life is? But there is always SO MUCH to be grateful for.  Life, for me, does not suck.  Life has many joys and many challenges and many things that we don’t understand for a good long time, or maybe never fully understand.  That is where faith comes in.  I have faith in a power greater than myself; His name is GOD.  Thank GOD I am not in charge!  lol

On that note, I think it’s time for an A-Z Gratitude list!
