I am trying very hard to not feel bad for myself, to not be upset with the situation God has handed us and I admit, I have days. We all do and will. In the recent effects of Sandy, I tell myself to stop being selfish and feeling bad for myself, to look at everyone else. My heart goes out to all the people who have been effected by this horrible storm.
My middle sister was telling me of a friend of hers family member (that sounds confusing) who lives in New Jersey that lost everything - their house is gone! The only thing that survived was their shed that houses a few tools and Christmas decorations. I felt horrible! Immediately I asked my sister to please find out what size this woman is and I will go through my closet/dresser and get some clothes together for her to give to her friend to pass along - also finding out the size of her husband and having my hubs do the same today.
I think about people that are sick - that go through and suffer much more than I could ever imagine. How selfish of me.
God dealt us this hand and we must learn to live with it and move forward - which is what we will do. There is no other option.
My 'to do' list - check!
