Today I am reminded

   I didn't really intend on blogging today but as I sit here in the quiet while my family sleeps I feel the need to share just how grateful I feel right now. As I watched the memorial this morning on TV I felt sad and I cried for the families who lost their loved ones ten years ago today, and as I watched tonight the stories of individuals who survived that day it made me realize just how very blessed I am. I have a wonderful husband, healthy children, a great big family and at least a handful of true life long friends. I am truly grateful for the life I have been given and it shouldn't take a day like today to remind us all to sit down look around and realize what true happiness we have right in front of us. Now I'm not saying my life is perfect and that I will never again complain, but I am saying this, the next time something isn't going my way or I feel like I've been dealt a bad hand I am going to try to take a few minutes and remember how I felt today and how lucky I am to be here surrounded by so much love.

   God bless the people who lost their loved ones ten years ago today and the fallen that now fly with angels.

   I hope everyone has a wonderful night and please take a moment to look around and find something wonderful to smile about!
