| Happy 4th of July! |
As I woke up on July 4th I thought about the
celebrations I would be missing this year.
My day would be filled with cooking, cleaning, and going over bill
pay. It made me fill sad for a moment
until I remembered that I should focus on the blessings of the moment not on what I was
missing. Let me explain…
I spent my July 4th holiday in Texas. It was not the usually firework, BBQ, boating
celebration I would have enjoyed in
there. I was cooking, cleaning, and
paying bills at my parents. My mom is
recovering from extensive back surgery
. It is difficult time for them. My
parents were grateful to have the help.
I thought what is good right now. The list was long. It just takes a minute to realize your life
is filled with blessings. A few that came to my mind were the freedom I have in the USA, the ability to
financially make the trip, the memories my parents like to share, and helping those in need. So although my 4th
was a quiet one without any celebration tales it was filled with joy!
